June Goals

It's the last week of June already and I totally rocked my goals this month!!
Goal #1 for June was to weigh-in weekly and lose a total of 4 lbs.
June 1 - 173 lbs
June 26 - 166 lbs
I lost 7 lbs this month!!! That's as much weight as I've lost in the past few months. I have NO IDEA what I did that was different; really I just upped my cardio.
Goal #2 - track every day.
I'm still tracking every day. I don't always complete it, but I'm tracking and being very conscious of everything I'm eating.
Goal #3 - up the cardio
...and boy have I!!! I ran my longest run ever last Sunday (5 miles), I've been walking at least 2-3 miles a day Mon-Fri, and I started doing TurboFire (which I totally LOVE!). One of those things, if not all of them, have blasted me right through that plateau. TurboFire is doing something Insanity never did for me. I'm sure it has a lot to do with how much I enjoy it. I am definitely putting more effort into the workouts, and it's really nice not having to modify the moves.
My 4th and final goal for June was to not eat after 8pm.
this was definitely my hardest goal. Sometimes I don't get home until 730-8pm and then until I'm done showering and have the kids in bed it can be 9pm before I'm unwinding. My stomach is usually growling. I try to make my protein smoothies last longer, that helps some. I'm working on eating my protein bars slower too instead of inhaling them. If I'm going to stay up until at least 11pm I'll have a snack at 9pm. I just make sure I weigh it out and it's a proper portion. No sitting in front of the tv with Chris eating chips and salsa or homemade popcorn without measuring it first!
