spring fling challenge goals..week number 4?
Okay, here were my goals:
1. Journal what I eat everyday. Haven't done this one this week...and don't think I will until I can eat again. I'm just trying to keep track of my protein right now. Being on liquids, not much to keep track of, really.
2. Exercise 4 days a week for 30 minutes a day. Thanks to the semi nice weather last week, I walked for 4 days with the kiddos. We live up the road from one of our parks, so we've been walking down there and playing a little.
3. Eat 60 grams of protein 5 of 7 days. I've done well on this one. Met it all 7 days. I'm finding what foods have a lot of protein in them and experimenting with shakes.
4. Get in 8 glasses of water 5 of 7 days. Met this one, but weekends are the worst! It's so hard for me to get it all in on the weekend. I decided yesterday to make some decaf ice tea to help get it all in. That helped.
So, I weighed in this morning and have lost 12 pounds since we started. I know that's from the liquids, but I"ll take it!

1) get under 300 pounds!!!!!
2) Stay away from junk as best I can
3) Move 30 minutes once a day!
These were my goals and I am just not soing well with them at all! I am back at 310#...ate bad all weekend! I am working on the moving thing though! I am going to try to go for a bike ride (first one in 30 yrs or better) when I get home today! I ate like a pig...and not a bit of it good for me...all weekend and have not been getting my fluids in at all! So since I am back in action almost everyother way...time to get back on track!

I think I did good. No Mexican restaurant this week. Maybe I'm back on track again.
1) Exercise 4 days a week. I didn't exercise 4 days this week but I exercised 3 days and one of those I did two classes at the gym.
2) Eat under 1300 calories a day. I did great with this. I had only ate 300 before the party at Becka and Rich's so I think I did good there even.
3) To be able to zip size 18 jeans easily. It's getting better but I'm not there yet.
4) To be under 200 pounds. I weighed this morning and I was 201 so I'm on my way.

I know by the end of this challenge, you'll be under 200! 
I am not doing too shabby. I have been moving (not at the gym) but I have been walking and bike riding. I have been drinking water everyday. Unfortunately the scale isn't moving. But that's okay.
Debbie,
don't worry about it. We both are super busy. As long as we check in we are good. Keep up the good work!!!

Week 4....hhhmmmmmm....well I must admit even with all the travel I haven't done too bad. Mojitos and chocolate mud cake (with ice cream of course) didn't get the best of me but maybe that was because I was exercise obsessed while traveling. Sometimes I think it might be easier with traveling because I am so afraid of "falling off" I force myself to exercise diligently to make up for any boo boos or errors in judgment (ha ha)
I really think I need to give up the whole of protein higher than carbs 5/7 days simply because fruits and veggies are carbs and it is impossible to eat right and keep pro>carbs everyday unless all I eat is protein.....not happening folks; ain't realistic
But....on the exercise plan:
Goal: Bike 30 mins 3/7 days....did this 5 days
Goal; Weight resistance training 4/7 days: did this 5 days
Scale hasn't budged a bit for 2 weeks but pants are looser so I am not going to get too uptight about it....
