To be honest, I need some motivation to get me to exercise today. I'm tired and all I want to do is play video games! Why oh why do they have to tempt me so?
Baby M is clicking her tongue at me!
Anyway, here's my summary of the week. I didn't work out as much on some days as I should have, but I've done better than I have in a long time. There was only one day I didn't work out at all. I had a lot of fruits and veggies, but I need to eat more as I'm barely hitting the minimum (1/2 cup is one serving, right?). I'm not eating a whole lot in general as I barely hit the minimum in most of the categories. I've been eating a few too many sweets as well... those arrowroot cookies are addicting. I need to stay away from them. I need to buy more dark chocolate and snack on a small piece of that when a sugar craving hits (or fruit, but sometimes fruit doesn't cut it). That way my sugar is at least somewhat healthy.
Here are my new measurements:
29.5" narrowest part
36" across my belly
40" on my butt and hips.
35" on my chest
Weight - 136.5lbs
I Lost 1.5inches and gained 1/2 lb.
My goals for the next week are as follows:
Servings to meet daily: 2 fruit, 4+veggies, 5+grains (at least 4 whole grains), 2 meat (at least 2/week fish), 2 dairy, 1(or less) other
Workout at least ½ hour/day.
Do strength training at least 3 times/week, aerobics and stretching/yoga daily,
Work outside more.
Lose an inch if I can.
Next up is the daily eats and feats from the last three days... since you already saw June 3-9. I'll have to come up with an easier way to post all this, but it's not something I want to deal with right now. At least I managed to measure myself today. Baby M is mocking me by eating the measuring tape. ;)

Time to rescue the measuring tape!
