Week of July 13 - Baby Steps

2. Get at least 7 hours sleep/night
3. No highly processed foods
4. Lose 2 pounds this week
Last week was not my best week. At the core of the problem was a lack of sleep. Everything else seems to stem from that. I'm starting this week on a better note. And with the better sleep last night, everything else should go better today. Also, I just do better when I'm participating in well organized MFP Challenges. The main 12 week challenge officially began today. The goal is 15 pounds in 12 weeks. After maintaining a consistent weight for about 3 months now, I'm ready to see the scale move down again.0 -

I started the week well. Then my younger son came into town on Fri. and I didn't track as I should. I was lucky, I still lost 3.6 pounds. This week I will again have the same goals and try to be mindful about what I am doing.0 -
My goal this week
Get my team to stop work and eat lunch 3 of 5 days. We work like machines and my colleagues are only eating at the end of the day when it is time to go home. I made them stop twice this week to eat at lunch time outside of the meeting room.

I just joined the group. My annual visit to the doctor made me sad when I saw the scale, plus I bought a new pair of pants and I'm back to my (non-pregnant) largest sized pants. Not happy about that. But I did spend some time refreshing me. Took vacation where I walked a lot, did yoga, and took a long hike... lower half just aches. I'm walking at an old lady pace, but it's a good kind of hurt. Yesterday, I packed and carried boxes, so my arms and back ache, too. But it feels like a great start to the new me (even got a new haircut).
My goal this week:
That's a lot considering that I haven't been in shape ever in my entire life and I haven't done a proper workout for over two years (appart from the Yoga and Hike just two days ago).0 -

Some of you know that I have been wanting a free weight set but that it had been put on hold because of the house. Last week on a local online auction I found a lot that contained a rack, two benches, a steel plate three hundred pound Olympic weight set with curl bar, and a regular steel plate weight set. I won it for 77.00. I also won one of those under desk stationary bike pedal machines for 12.00. Needless to say I am thrilled.
I am really hoping that this will help me to re-focus on my journey. I am struggling and making poor choices. I am lacking the fire and passion I had for the first six months. I want to get back on track and get the scale moving again. I am hoping with the girls going back to school next week the change in the household routine will help me get back on track.
My goals for the rest of this week.
1. Log food
2. Find weigh routine and figure out how much weight to start with
3. Cardio every other day0
