In the weekly Warrior Mini-Goal Challenge focus on your short term goals.

Focusing on one week at a time, when the big picture seems too overwhelming. Small changes can bring on big results!!

Choose one or more things you want to work on for just this week. Don't set it too high or unreachable!!

Please, make sure your week works for you. Sun to Sat or Mon to Sun, whatever is YOUR week!

You can reach your main goal if you break it into small actionable steps. It could be as easy as 1-2-3!

1) Choose something you know you can do easily.
2) Add more difficult tasks to your plan.
3) These small steps will get you started, motivated & help build routine for long term success!!

Anyone interested in joining us for another week, or a first week, or a get back on track week?

Check in often, have a great week and do the best you can! B)<3

    What we do or do not do today affects our tomorrows. The life you want to live, the body you want to have, or the runner you want to be – aren’t things that happen over one night. YET if you keep this simple principle in mind you can see yourself literally transform before your very eyes.

    Thanks Hearts for getting us started this week and for the inspirational quotes.

    In alignment with hearts quotes, instead of being discouraged, I will acknowledge that I made a baby step of progress at least towards my calorie goal last week and made healthy food choices 5/7 days. I also made it to both yoga classes and walked the doggies once or twice :)

    This week my goals are:

    1. Make healthy food choices with 1 sweet treat or carb treat allowance for the week
    2. Stay within calorie goal 3/7 days
    3. Drink 7-8 glasses of water 5/7 days
    4. Log 6/7 days
    5. Exercise at least 3/7 days

    Okay, goals for the week.

    Hike 5 days, 2 of them with weight in the pack.
    Log every meal, snack, etc and stay within calories.
    Do Fit Climb strength training work out.

    If I didn't already tell you I've got two backpacking trips totaling about 300 miles
    this summer, the John Muir Trail and the Wonderland Trail. Boy will I be training for that.
    I really want to get down to 130 pounds which is almost 20 pounds. I need to carry weight in my pack, not on my body.

    This is the recipe I'm wild about now!

    Easy, tasty and healthy Eggplant Ratatouille

    INGREDIENTS
    1 Tbsp Olive oil
    1 cup chopped onions
    1-1/2 cups chopped green bell pepper
    8 ounces eggplant, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (3 cups) (Asian eggplant is good for this)
    2 medium, fresh garlic cloves, minced
    1 pint sweet grape tomatoes, halved (or 2 regular tomatoes, chopped up)
    1/3 cup Red Wine
    1/4 tsp. dried pepper flakes
    3 Tbsp. Red Wine Vinegar
    1/2 cup chopped fresh basil, or to taste (or 1.5 tsp dried basil)
    1 ounce grated Asiago cheese

    PREPARATION
    1. Heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil in large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Cook the peppers and onions 4 minutes or until onions are translucent, stirring frequently. Add the eggplant and garlic; cook 5 minutes or until eggplant is tender. Stir in the tomatoes and beans, and cook 3 minutes. Add the red wine, red wine Vinegar, and pepper flakes. Cook 2 minutes or until tomatoes are slightly soft.

    2. Remove from heat, stir in the basil and salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle evenly with cheese.
