    I thought I posted my goals but I guess I was only imagining it!
    1) eat more protein
    2) workout at least 4x
    3) get 10miles in

    Week three goals:

    1) Run 70 miles
    2) Plan workouts for Nov
    3) stay under weekly allotted cals.

    Umm, I am 3 days into this week and realize that 70 miles of running may not be realistic can I modify to "move" 70 miles?? With the rain we've been experiencing I am falling short of my daily goals, not by much, but enough...

    Finished the week, not a drop of alcohol :) and got my planned workouts and 3 mile run in.

    NEXT WEEK THREE GOALS (merge one goal, so added a new one)

    1 - No Coffee after 6pm (this will reduce by an hour each week, I'm a coffee fiend)
    2 - No Alcohol for duration of challenge
    3 - Do my own planned workouts.

    12 week to fit week 1 days
    Running distance progressions, add 1 mile each week (this week will be 4 miles)
    Foam roll video on running days - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iokhiGjx2Q
    Do attack workouts even if exempted


    HUMP Day Update

    Haven't had coffee after 6pm this week so far :) but still drinking too much, yesterday I interspersed them with herbal teas, to save on calories.. saved me over 200 but still have 250 cals of coffee ( take milk, can't drink it without).. no alcohol even though I fancy a glass of wine )I have kids you understand and it's half term here in the UK) but being good...

    The workouts are hard as although I'm at home this week, other half isn't so getting to the gym to fit in the workouts have been tricky, tomorrow I have to go at 6.30am and do double days (lucky my program is only 25-35 mins daily) so it's leg strength day and interval running..

    As I couldn't get to the gym today I did the fitness blender kickboxing workout, in Glen's honour... I'm going to also try fit in the pilates one as I tend to just do yoga... so thought why not.

    So far, so good... how's everyone else doing?

    Team Daryl/Carol

    1) what keeps me going has been constantly setting different goals. My first goal was to just run a mile without stopping... Then to run a 5K, then to do a squat challenge, then run 10miles, then to run a 10min mile. Now my goal for next summer is to run a half marathon. I never want to stop just because I hit a goal. I what there to be a constant need to improve, to push myself.
    2) I also try to stick with a primarily paleo/keto/clean eating lifestyle.

    This is usually what I eat on any given day.
    Deviled eggs made with avocado
    Summer sausage, goat cheese, hummus and almonds
    Capris salad with turkey meatballs
    Tomatoes topped with avocado and an over easy egg.
    I'm also really big into meal prep.... Here is an example of what I did for last week:
    jt5f8bix0gxm.jpeg
    These are for breakfast and lunches. Salmon, chicken or an egg. The H and R are for hard boiled or raw. These have helped me from making bad choices and over eating. A real life saver if you ask me.
    3) I've also taken a liking to boxing/kickboxing. I've recent purchased my own heavy bag and this is one of my favorite workouts I do with it.

    Not sure if I did this right but those are all the things that keep me going! :)

    @tat2cookie love the food you make and prep! You're so organized, I wish I could do the same. I'll probably copy your menu, lol. Thanks for the ideas!

    Yes, can you make my food for me?

    It's hard at times to stay motivated. I know sometimes it's hard to keep a routine going because it can get boring. These challenges help me, fitnessblender and knowing I don't want to go backwards. Stress creeps in and it's hard to balance life. This time around I'm not actually pushing myself to the limit. I'm just doing exercise that I like and keeps me moving.

    Next week goals

    1) No cups of coffee after noon (have too it's effecting my sleep too much)
    2) No Alcohol at all and drink 8 glasses of water a day
    3) workout 6 days, using form roller on running days

    The no coffee after lunch was easier than I though it was going to be, I did have one or two cups of tea but drank the 8 glasses water also.. I actually halved my calorie intake on coffees this week :)

    still no alcohol drunk and I worked out 6 days, form roll done

    MY goals are staying the same for next week

    Part 1) What drives me is wanting to be healthy and active for a longer life. What keeps me going and motivates me is the fear that if something were to ever happen to me who would take care of my animals?! :/
    I started u journey at 339.9 on March 3rd. As of yesterday I am down to 233.2. I made massive use of Leslie Sansone walk videos in the beginning. I love the variety of Darebee workouts offered as well. I've also done T25 and 21 Day Fix videos. It's not that I need them as much as it gives you three months to not have to think about what you're going to do. My goal to be more active has been a complete success. I add something to everything nowadays. Just sat on my sofa for the first time in two weeks about two days ago. I did crunches in the car while driving from Vegas to Tucson last night. I add stretch exercises to various activities throughout the week and have been averaging 20,000 steps a day lately. I think the most important thing is to stay active. Add an exercise, even a short one, to ever activity you do. Even if it's watching tv. Do something strenuous or heart rate unceasing during the commercials. Just don't remain sedentary. Much luck my MFP Friends!
    P.s. Besides, if you don't keep moving you'll get bit. ;)
    P.s.s. For food I eat clean. On the rare occasion I slide a little (and without dancing and walking for hours on end) I do a three day cleanse. Basically eating Super Clean cutting out carbs and sugar. Works like a charm! ;)

    2) for the apprenticeship I went with prepping my meals for this trip. I got the supplies for most of my meals for a few days. They're not in individual packages because it was easier to pack in the car in bulk but I have several ready to go. Wish me luck to not put in too much from the other outings going on while I'm here. I don't want to look like a zombie buffet when I return home. ;)
