Healthy Holidays Challenge – Week #5

Well, hello!  What a busy, but fruitful week I’ve had.  
The busy-ness continues, so I’ll make this quick.. 
  1. I will exercise for a minimum of 30 minutes, 4-5 days a week.  Done.  
  2. I will track my food at least 6 days a week.  Done.  I am pleased to announce I did not eat all of my weekly points by Wednesday.  🙂  
  3. I will drink at least 32 ounces of pure water a day.  Well…this didn’t go as good as I hoped.  I didn’t get 32 oz in every day, but I got more than that a couple.  So.. maybe it evens out.  lol
  4. I will enjoy the holidays, but not forget my new ending in life includes making the best choice for ME — whether that’s having something in moderation or saying no.  Done.  On Wednesday I ate more small [almost homemade] flour tortillas than I really needed, but I had the room in my weekly points.  Next time I probably will try and be satisfied with two, but … this time instead of choosing to beat myself up because I over did it, I chose to track it, be responsible for it and move on.  They were delicious and I enjoyed them.  Yes, I’m entering the weekend with a few less points than I like, but a week ago right now I was entering the weekend in the negative.  So, that’s a win in my book.
I hope you have all had good weeks.  I’m off to pick up my son from school.  Tonight is the high school rivalry football game and I’m just thrilled we are the home team, because home team has bleachers with backs on them.  

Yeah…now I feel old.  ROFL 😀 

Thanks for checking in!
