1. I would say it went well, because it had to. I was in the field so army food and a lot of outside time.

2. I need to get back in my workout routine. Easier said than done, but it will happen. I am going to the beach this weekend so I am using that as my weekend workout and trying to run 2 other times this week. Also get in 15-20 min arm/ab work every night.

3. I don't have any. Wasn't able to shop or meal plan so my goal is portion control and staying away from junk. Next week will be back on track.

4. My field time gave me a good start on loosing weight. Want to keep it up.

1. Last week went well! I joined Weight Watchers two weeks ago, and am really getting into the points tracking groove and finding healthy, filling, yummy things to eat. Saturday I kind of bombed, but I had a wedding shower to attend and then got home exhausted with a migraine, so a frozen pizza at 9 PM was my downfall.

2. No specific workout routine yet - technically still not far enough out from my surgery. But I do plan to start wearing my Fitbit again and upping my step counts.

3. Try to avoid using up my weekly points allocation on stupid stuff like leftover Easter candy.

4. I'm generally feeling better about myself and my choices since starting this plan. I don't need to lose a ton of weight, but I know I wasn't making healthy choices. (Hello bag of Cadbury mini eggs I would eat in one sitting...) And I've gotten DH on board too, so that's a win!

Welcome back!

1. How did last week go?

Not very well. I was very ill last week with stomach problems. I know what you're thinking, I should be skinny. No dice. When I'm nauseous I usually eat chick fil a.


2. What are your work out goals for the week? Number? Type?

I covered bootcamp today for the woman who normally leads. My goal is to get back on my regular workout routine if I can. I've been kind of sort of off it for two weeks being on vacation and then being sick, so jumping back in may be a challenge.


3. What are your food goals for the week?

Clean eating, but I'm getting so. bored. with what I normally eat. I actually bought some low cal frozen meals. So much sodium but I am just over salads and soups and I don't have left overs right now.


4. Any non-scale victories?

I did my first 25 mile bike in a triathlon - I did it as a relay with my cousins. We got first place...although we were the only ones in our division.

The cousin that did the swim is pretty out of shape...but he's a great swimmer and swam in college. He was actually 2nd out of the water. The jerk. JK I'm happy for him. Even if I swim 3 times a week so that I can struggle through triathlon swims.

1. Last week was great - got in runs and yoga, as well as some walks, and stayed within my calorie goals during the week days.
2. Run x2 (harder this week because I won't get to run this weekend due to travel) yoga x1, video x2
3. Stay within my calorie goals during the week so that I won't get totally derailed at my sister's bachelorette this weekend.
4. Nothing stands out.

1. Last week I was in survival mode: last week of maternity leave and I caught the cold DS had.
2. Start PiYo today and get through week 1.
3. Food should be better without much effort since I won't have access to oreos during the day.
4. My cleaning lady told me I was looking good yesterday.

Welcome Back!
1. How did last week go?
Not bad, I started "Couch to 5K" two weeks ago. I've avoided the running aspect as my back can't hold up to it but have been power walking. It actually feels pretty good and I haven't got super achy which is keeping my motivation up.


2. What are your work out goals for the week? Number? Type?
Get my 3 power walks in and be able to be active and helpful at t-ball. It sucks when you can't bend over to pick up the ball.


3. What are your food goals for the week?
Stay away from junk food!
I scheduled salads for dinner a couple nights and I need to stop at the store to get yogurt for breakfast.

Confession
School messed up Friday and put DD on the bus so I ended up running from school home to drive to get her from DC to take her to the chiro. It is 3 oversized city blocks home. I made it but by the time I got to the chiro I was a wreck and almost passed out. All I got was a achy back and a nasty migraine plus elevated blood pressure/heartrate that took almost an hour to regulate. I know some of this was stress induced but running shouldn't cause this kind of reaction, right?

1. How did last week go?

Work out wise, last week was good. I have seriously got to stop my afternoon snacking though

2. What are your work out goals for the week? Number? Type?

Get my long training run in plus four strength sessions

3. What are your food goals for the week?

Cut down on snacking!

4. Any non-scale victories?
I got out my summer clothes over the weekend. I haven’t lost much weight since last summer but all my shorts are really loose. I can tell all the weight lifting I have been doing over the last year is finally paying off.
