Weekly Challenge - what's your goal

I feel like a pretzel, when I am trying to roll on my IT band. Yes, it is some of the best of the worst pain. LOL and OUCH.

 My goal is to develop a list of lunch items that I can premake on Sunday and use for the upcoming school year.  I want to post it on the Fridge so I don't have to try to conjure something up every single day of every single week.   (If anyone has a list already done please do share!- I will troll old posts for ideas in the mean time.)

Continue to log all food (all drinks really)

After surgery - sip, walk, rest, repeat...

- Finishing my grading and correcting papers for my summer classes.

- Work out 3 days this week, whi*****lude 5k on the elliptical and lifting weights.

- Walk at least 20 minutes the other 2 days this week.

- Participate in a 5k "fun run" this Saturday...just to see how far my buns can make it!

- Track everything I eat on OH...and stick with my purees and soups!!

I'd call my week a HUGE success.  Good thing I have these GOALS because that ***** ass scale is so NOT cooperating with me!!

This weeks goal

1)  To complete week 2 of our marathon training.  Runs planed for M, W & Sat.  I just installed a Couch to 5K app on my phone.  So it will be part of my run days.
2)  FOCUS my meals to 200-250 meals and up to 100 cal snacks for a daily average 900-1050, no more then 1200 per day.  I need to really LOOK and PLAN.  
3)  Fix my spaghetti sauce for me dinner this week.  Alison here is the blog that I found the contraption that I use to make my "noodles"  I love this freaking thing

4)  Thursday plan by weekend eating.
5)  My last goal is always to hit 6,000 steps without exercise.  I did it almost EVERYDAY except Sunday but I will call that a big WIN!!

Let's go!!

I'm reconnecting with my fellow sleevers to get back on track and get these last pounds off this body...so my goals this week are:
No snacking - I've gotten out of control!
No carbs - except one meal per day and then under 20 grams per day (since it's only 1 meal)
Exercise 5 times this week (dropped down to 2x/per wk the last month!)
Drink all my water (drinking water in the evening instead of snacking really helps)
Log everything like I used to (stopped a month ago for some reason)

My goal is to wrap up the last two days of my pre-op diet and get through my clears-only day on Wednesday without being a cranky B to everyone around me. Non wls related goal is to finish unpacking and hanging pictures so my house will look like home again. And figure out how to set up a wifi network when I finally get my interwebs and cable hooked up tomorrow.

1.  To put more structure into my weekend eating.  I'm so good during the week at work, and so bad on the weekends.  Still manage to keep within my calories, but I feel like I'm eating or looking to eat all weekend.

2.  Try to do my weight training by myself as hard as I work when the trainer is barking at me.

3.  Get on the old timey stairmaster at the gym and last for more than 5 minutes!  Darn it, I can stay on the elliptical, crosstrainer and treadmill for an hour or more, but that stairmaster whups me every time!

My goal this week is to make it to the pool at least twice.

Goal 1 -- stop obsessing about this stall.  How?  Rehiring the hit man to "take out" my scale!

Goal 2 -- continue going to the gym to work out for an hour -- any moving is better than none.

Goal 3 -- continue using the euphoria that still exists to keep me on plan with NO cheating!

I gave up on last week's goal of 3 miles on the recumbent bike in under 18 minutes -- altered it to do a minimum of 3.25 miles in under 20 minutes.  No point in continuing to

Thanks for having this Allison -- it's fun and helpful.

Hope your week is less stressful/crazy than you are expecting.............just breathe!
