If you didn't share your goals for this second week of the challenge on the previous thread, please do so here. I will aim to always make two separate threads, so that it really feels like a fresh beginning :)

    Since I did reach all of my goals for week one, I plan to continue to do them this week.

    Exercise goal for week 2- Get in the gym four day Monday - Thursday and walk a few days to get ready for the breast cancer walk May 10th

    Nutrition goal for week 2 - Get my fruits and vegetables in daily, and drink my gallon of water.

    Wellness goal for week 2- Is to keep my thoughts positive and to speak positive and to surround myself with positive people, also to reach out to other.

    Reward for week 2 - My reward will be doing the 5k walk/run for breast cancer, I will be walking this but will run the next one :-)

    My goals for week two are:
    1. jog 2 times outdoors
    2. drink 8 - 10 glasses of (200ml) water per day
    3. do yoga once

    I aim to keep this weeks goals small and easy to achieve since I will write three really big exams in the next ten days, which means i wont have enough timeto focus on my fitness goals. Since i can`t think of a reward which is not very time consuming I will leave it completely out this week :)
    Once again I wish you all good luck with your goals and I hope you will achieve them whilst having a good and happy week.:smile:

    Exercise: Do all 6 Combat workouts for the week

    Nutrition: Continue to "cook out of the pantry" and make wise choices for dinner

    Wellness: Make time to work in the yard if it's not rainy (I love working outside)

    I'll stick with the olive oil masque for my hair for the reward since I missed it for last week.

    Good luck everyone :)

    I met my fitness goal last week of 3 cardio sessions and 2 strength, so this week I want to see if I can do 3 cardio and 3 strength, even if the strength is just a 10 minute circuit after a run.

    Nutrition- this week I want to say no to desserts except for 1 day :)

    Wellness- I moved this weekend and am busy and settling into a new place, so I just want to take some time before bed each night to chill and relax and tell myself I did good today and set a few goals for the next day. One day at a time!

    Fitness - Get at least 30 min exercise daily

    Nutrition - Stop eating when I feel full :)

    ***
    P.S. My reward for week 1 was supposed to be shopping for a new handbag... Well, I shopped for new pajamas instead! And bought an awesome set that look great on the slimmer me! :) I definitely feel rewarded ;)

    Good luck, everyone! We can do it!!

    I like those goals, Katie! Especially the wellness one - a lot of people overlook the importance of reflecting on their day, and their state of mind. We end up trapped in our daily routines because we don't allow ourselves a few moments to put the brakes on..

    Taylorxxlynne - love your reward! I've always wanted to go to Yosemite :)

    I will also quickly summarize my progress this week so far. I'm going up to Maine for an entire week starting this weekend, and so I won't have the chance to give a Sunday update. So a Thursday update will have to suffice :)

    I've met my goals of 30 min/day exercise so far, and I've been doing a lot of yoga, which REALLY helped me with back pain and muscle cramps (not to jinx myself lol).

    I tried being more mindful of when I start feeling full, and stop eating at that point. There were a few times when I didn't stop, just kept going, but thankfully no harm was done, as it was mostly eating another banana or another slice of bread, etc. I don't even dare imagine what could happen if more destructive foods are present during my "weak moments..." This is an area I will keep working on...

    Also, I'm giving myself a pat on the back for handling stress in appropriate ways (a.k.a. not pigging out like there's no tomorrow). Because there IS a tomorrow, and I'm WORKING HARD for it, and I want to be accountable for my behavior, so that I can enjoy the fruits of my efforts :)

    I know this is a thread for Week 2 goals, but since I won't have the chance to post about my Week 3 goals on Sunday, I'll do it here, very quickly:

    Exercise: 30 min a day
    Nutrition: I will be aware of the signals my body is sending me
    Mental wellness: same goal as Nutrition :)

    Have a great weekend, everyone! :flowerforyou: Good luck with your goals! Even if things aren't going the best for you, remember that there's a brand new day right after this one, and stay positive! :drinker:
