2 weeks into May already, and so far so good with my No Weigh May attempt. Here are my goals and how I'm doing with them:
1) Weight goal - to lose 4 lbs.
According to the numbers for calories consumed I probably maintained last week. I didn't even feel tempted to look at the scale this week which is kind of a nice change from constantly obsessing over it. Of course that could have everything to do with knowing that I didn't eat well and I don't really want to know how I did - UGH!
2) Food. To track every day, even on weekends.
I tracked every day last week, and the proof is when I logged on to myfitnesspal it said, "Gillenator has logged in for 10 days in a row!" (YES, my log in name is Gillenator...it does have a nice ring doesn't it?! Look me up if you're on there). I have to do some digging around, it would be nice if it had a summary of how many calories you ate every day. I'm sure it's on there somewhere. My goal is to eat 1800 calories a day, so I went back through each day to see what I did. WARNING: it's not pretty, but I suddenly feel more motivated to do better. I should've thought to write them down like this before...
Sun - 2418
Sat - 2005
Fri - 2090
Thurs - 1574 (I bet I didn't log everything)
Wed - 2315
Tues - 2299
Mon - 1969
Um, yea, so I'm not even close to goal most days, SO this week my goal is 2000. Maybe I it'll be easier for me if I make it a number that I can achieve; then I can go from there.
3) Coffee.
I'm getting used to 3 Tbsp, so tomorrow I'm going to try 2 and see how it goes. I'm not sure I'll drink it black or not, but the fewer Tbsp I add, the healthier it should get for me.
4) Running. 9 miles a week.
Okay, I only ran 8 miles this week. We started running with the jogging strollers again since Chris went off of leave. Apparently we are about a half mile slower when we push them, and it affected my mileage for the week. On a good note my blister is all but healed and my new running shoes are AWESOME!!
5) Workout. At least 5 times a week (doesn't include running right now).
I did all 5 CLX/Insanity workouts last week - YEA ME! I also did all 3 ab routines - another YEA ME!! However, I did not stick with my do one pull-up a day challenge. Apparently I'm going to have to tape that one to my forehead to remember to try them. It's not like I don't walk past the pull-up bar several times a day (it's hanging on our bedroom door).
This morning when I logged onto Facebook I came across I See Fit People's challenge for the week - do 2000 lunges. Yes, you read that right 2-0-0-0!!
Of course I signed up for it! That means I have to do 286 a day for 7 days. I knocked out 300 in 50 count increments this morning. Denver chased me in circles around the house and Katelynn was trying to count with me and almost messed me up a few times. They are so cute!!
