Maybe I'm an optimist, or maybe I fit the definition of insane for once again thinking I'm really on track this time. Either way, I do feel hopeful and what I would call motivated. I have not lost any weight since last week, but I went out of town for a few days and didn't gain any. I have set a goal for this Friday and I am going to do everything I can to achieve it. So far I am having luck with the other non weight goals that I have been setting which is something. Here's how last week shaped up with a 3 day vacation in the mix.
Recap:
- 10,000 steps 6 of 7 days: I exceeded 4 of 7 and was less than 1,000 away 2 of 7
- Plank 6 of 7: I made it 4 of 7
- Food log 5 of 7: I made it 4 of 7 but exceeded calories 3 of those 4 times
- Bike 3 days 30 minutes: Did it!!! This was my real win for the week.
I felt that these goals were achievable, and that I will meet or exceed them this week.
Goals for this week:
- 10,000 steps 6 out of 7 days
- Log food 5 out of 7 days
- Plank 6 out of 7 days
- Bike 3 times for 30 minutes or more
I went to the beach last weekend and had a really great time. I don't feel like I busted either my calorie or money budgets which feels great! I have a busy time at work coming up, and I am a little nervous about resisting the urge to treat myself to things just to make myself feel temporarily better. I am going to pick out a nice restaurant that I would like to go to next time the occasion arises so that I don't burn an opportunity on mediocre.
I still have not used my credit cards! This is a huge win for us! We went to the beach this weekend and it would have been so easy to use the vacation special event excuse. The less I spend the more I think about what I'm spending. I have had a few bumps along the way such as only bringing one bottle of wine this weekend and having to pay $3 more to purchase it at the beach. Live and learn.
