Today’s Yesterday’s Weight: 165.5
Loss/Gain: +/- 0
We had an unexpected family emergency and I ended up driving my sister-in-law to the airport yesterday morning to go care for my mother-in-law. All will be fine, but it was not into my plans for the day (of which there were many because I’m readying for company and a very busy week next week.)
So, I didn’t post yesterday, nor did I exercise.
Speaking of didn’t do’s …
- I want to break 160 on the scale. I want to see 159 or lower. Started at 166.0. I maintained this week. Still 0.5 of 7 down.
Sub goals:
- Exercise 4 days a week minimum, shoot for two days of running and two days of something else. Runs can be 30-35 minutes, but everything else 45-60 minutes. Only exercised 3 days this week. I am adjusting this goal to 30-45 minutes of exercise, instead of 45-60. It’s just more realistic for my hectic life.
- Track food, even if over calorie budget. Only tracked half the week.
- Drink minimum of 64 oz. water daily. I think I did this the best this week. Some evenings I was sipping water like crazy getting that second 32 oz. bottle down, just because I knew I had this goal. 🙂
As I told my friend yesterday. I was very busy and didn’t make myself focus enough on my goals to lose any weight this week. While I’m glad to know I didn’t gain weight, I need to focus a little more.
This is a very busy time of year and the reason I started this challenge for myself was to be reminded that I need to keep my health a priority. I don’t think my goals are unrealistic. And I do think I can do it. Every day I need to remind myself that on top of taking care of every other commitment in my life I need to keep this one.
I will enjoy the holidays, and that will include enjoying the knowledge that I finished out 2012 strong and healthy. 🙂
