Last week was a success, but I was sick over the weekend with a stomach bug, so yesterday and today have been spent catching up and doing some relaxing.
Last week's challenge was to take a true assessment of your eating, drinking, and fitness habits. I did this and I am really disappointed in what I found. I was right in that I don't eat every much. The problem is that I don't eat enough. I'm lucky if I eat more than dinner in a day. I may grab something quick for lunch , which usually consists of a snack cake. I have also found that I do not eat enough quality. I will definitely be working on this.
I was right in that I don't drink enough water and I drink entirely too much coffee- I will be working on this as well.
Also, because I work at home from my computer, about the only exercise I get is chasing my 2 year old around. I know now what I need to work on, and I will do better this week. Life changes cannot happen over night.
I was going to do a pounds lost chain to visualize how far I have come. However, I decided against this. I am going to skip weighing for a little bit- probably a week or two. I think this will be better for my psyche.
This week's challenge is to find a low calorie/ healthy breakfast. This is definitely something I need to work on. I have never been a breakfast eater. I'm a breakfast drinker- coffee is the only thing I want in the morning. I used to drink a bottle of orange juice or V8 juice every morning- I need to pick up that habit again.
Do you have a challenge you need a buddy with? Do you have a go to breakfast? I would love to hear about it.
By the way, here are my before and after so far photos.
