Hopefully we all feel a little better after the first week of our new routine. Eating better and adding in exercise always makes me feel better. Even when the scale doesn't move that much I just feel more balanced when I eat better and exercise. I didn't get to exercise as much as I had planned, but I think I can increase a little more each week. I did really good with my points. I had a few cheat moments, but I had exercised on those days to allow for more calories. Sadly, you really can't hide peanut M&M's from the scale in the morning. Today I weighed in and barely wanted to look at the scale because I thought it may not be very good. I had lost 2.8 lbs by Wednesday and then the scale creeped up a little each day. I was happy to see that the scale gave me a 2 pound loss for the week. I think that is a good amount for my first week back. Now if I can just maintain that and lose a little each week I'd be very happy.
Goals:
Exercise:
Cardio at least 4 times this week
Strength training 3-4 times this week
Stay within my point range (20pts) +5pts on workout days
Stay motivated........
The staying motivated is the hard part for me. I want to tone up and look better, but my clothes fit. Its when my clothes get uncomfortable that I get truly motivated. I get sloppy and a bit lazy when I am at a comfortable weight. Hopefully, I can stay motivated and keep up my healthy lifestyle. I did just get new running shoes, so hopefully I can get out and run a few times this week. These were a belated birthday present it wasn't my monthly goal prize. I will save that for June 26th girls night out!
Weighing in at 133.8lb (5-30-09)

Hoping for 132.8-133.3 next week (6-6-09)
