I have another song to get me started for this Monday…
Go ahead!! Click the link and listen to the song!! Ya know ya want to!!
A Change will do you good:
This past week was very interesting! I decided to quit Weight Watchers. I have loved my meetings and I have learned so much but I am starting to waver with why I am at those meetings!! I have also been having a lot of guilty feelings. I have been feeling guilty about what I am eating, guilty about counting & not counting all my points, guilty about spending the money on WW!
I hit the cancel button! I canceled my WW account. As of April 1 I will no longer be a WWer. I feel oddly relieved about this.
Wednesday will be my new weigh-in day! I chose Wednesdays so that I can be in sync with Shrinking Jeans since I LOVE their challenges!! I weighed in at 192.4 for a 2 pound loss this week. I am just recording the number and moving on. My success is not and WILL NOT be determined solely based on the number on the scale.
I am still training to run a 5K! I have completed week 2 of the Couch to 5K training! I actually LOVE slogging!! I call it slogging ~~ Slow jogging/walking is totally the way for me!! Here comes week 3!! I love challenging myself and this is the way to go! The kid is super happy about my running ventures. She is going to slog with me on days we can hit the school track. I am going to sign up for a 5K at the end of the training and when I can run 3 miles + I have decided to sign up for the Warrior Dash in Maryland in October. This race looks like so much fun!! I am in training!!
I also finished Week 2 of the Bob Greene 8 Week Total Body Makeover. I love these workouts! They are short but powerful! I feel like I am getting stronger. I have been trying to break into strength training. I want to strength train and I know how good it will be for me but I am so clueless! I love simple workouts at home and this one fits the bill!!
I am revamping my food plan this week. I am cutting out more processed food and concentrating on whole grains and lean proteins and LOTS of fruits and veg! I am aiming for Monday – Friday to be awesome food days (now white flour, no sugar and lots of the good stuff)! This gives me the weekend to let loose a little but still make good choices. This will also allow me to eat without feeling guilty. I can record what I eat without worrying about a certain # of points.
Slogger training has made me hungrier than usual and I want to feed my body so that I can continue to make progress. I feel like this eating “plan” I am working on will be better for me! I will be eating all the right foods, or clean, 80-90% of the time and I think this will allow me to break my guilty feelings about food. I will be posting about this more often! I have not blogged about my food feelings very much because I am just now realizing I have feelings about food! I will come back to this topic.
NON SCALE VICTORY:
Yesterday, I put on a thumb ring that I have not been able to wear in at least 6 years! It is not tight either!! It fits perfectly!!
This week, I am going to ROCK week 3 of the Couch to 5K and week 3 of Bob Greene!
This week, I am going to eat so many veggies I may turn green! LOL!
This week, I am going to plan and prep for each day the night before (just like I make my daughter do before bed)!
This week, I am going to enjoy my life!!
How will you enjoy your week?
I am not very good about taking my measurements.
