Week Three of 2016
Plan for 2016
- Smaller goals, starting with 1/2 a pound per month minimum. Goal Met!
- No less than 2 hours a week for working out. Goal Met!
- Veggies with every dinner. Goal Met!
- No more than one alcoholic drink (mixed drink or hard cider) per week (may be altered for holidays, can save up the weekly drinks to have multiple at an event). Goal Met! One drink total.
Overall this is the smallest weekly loss seen for 2016 so far, and I'm okay with that. While I hit the minimum of two hours weekly for working out, I was short a day due to family visiting on MLK Day (I usually work out every day after work because there's a gym in the basement of the building). Also, I'm creeping into TOM, so I've been ravenous for all the wrong items the last few days.
The Better Health Committee at work just kicked off their Stairs challenge for February (basically you pledge to take the stairs as often as possible rather than the elevators, and you're allowed to wear jeans for the month). Unless I'm carrying a whole bunch of stuff or running really late, I take the stairs, so woo! Free jeans for meeee :)
I've got another four day workweek coming up, as we're rolling out to see my parents Friday. While it'll be a little bit of a long weekend, its going to be anything but restful. My parents upgraded their appliances, and we're picking up their old ones with a U-Haul, to bring them back to a storage unit by us (six hours west).
Getting better with the veggies at dinner. I've found when I make chicken alfredo, I can make enough pasta for SO, and I use cauliflower florets as a sub for myself. I was concerned earlier this week when we decided on tacos for dinner, but I realized I had frozen corn that I ended up tossing into my taco (helped cut back on the amount of beef I used, so double helpful!). While not the best of veggies, it still counts, haha! And before I start getting suggestions for things like pepper or onions, I'm superbly picky when it comes to veggies. I won't eat salad or most things that go in a salad (so no lettuce, tomatoes, olives, onions, peppers, etc, etc) though the thought is appreciated.
Pleased to see some of my buddies have either come back or are more active on here than they have been recently :D
Happy Sunday!
