sylvanwitchWelcome, friends, to another check-in! I hope you've had a good week, but even if it's been rough, we're here to listen and not judge.
Please do share with us your ups and downs and let us know what you're thinking about for the week ahead.
Weight: I lost .4 pounds and am glad of it. My plan to lose .5 or so a week seems to be working!
Exercise: I finished the 18-workout iFit elliptical challenge (which didn't have to be done until the 28th!) AND a mini-challenge (3 workouts) this week. We've had a ton of snow this week, so outdoor walking has been out of the question, and I haven't gotten around to more snowshoeing, though I'm hoping maybe I can get some time for it tomorrow. I have let the strength training go to the wayside, though, and MUST get back to it.
Eating plan: I've been good. Truly. Lots of veg, fruit, whole grains, and beans, with a lot less processed food (and some days none).
Meditation: I did some while out walking in my yard in the snow the other day, and it was lovely. But, I do need a more regular plan.
The week ahead: I'm going to keep on keeping on.
Wishing you good things for the week to come!

Date: Monday, 7 February 2022 05:45 pm (UTC)Did really well this last week. Up quite a bit this morning for some reason though. I don't think I ate that poorly yesterday, but I did eat later in the evening than I usually do so I hope it's just a temporary blip. (I've started officially tracking only my weekly average instead of end-of-week weight as I'm hoping that will smooth out the blips and give me a more realistic picture of how I'm doing.)
I needed to order some new clothes as my favorite work dress is wearing out. I found the exact same dress online (for more than I really wanted to pay, but it's my favorite) and I took the plunge and ordered two of them. One in my current size and one a size smaller.
Re: doing okay
Date: Tuesday, 8 February 2022 12:57 am (UTC)I also LOVE the idea of a favorite dress as motivation for making your goal. I am POSITIVE you're going to get into that dress THIS YEAR! (And I'm going to make my goal to get back INTO some of my work pants, which I CAN wear but which are too snug for comfort.)
Go, us! We can do this! :-)
