Healthy Living Check In 3.2.15

[ksyknelvr73]

How did you do with your goals this past week? I did pretty well. Stayed mostly on track with my eating. I was down 1.4 lbs yesterday morning when I weighed myself. I think it's going well and I'm still not as strict as I need to be.

Do you have any new goals for this week? I think eating well will be a challenge this week. I have to work 3 really long days in a row (starting today) and that always makes me want to eat all the crappy food.

QOTW: Favorite activities to do with your LO's when stuck inside?? I am lazy so we mostly just watch movies, but that only really applies to my 4 year old since DS2 isn't old enough to know or care about movies. I also like to bake - that's fun. I can wear the baby and ask the toddler to "help" me.

Sorry I have been MIA! I have been so busy, but I am trying to back into the swing here. 


Do you have any new goals for this week?
Zumba twice and walks at least four days (it's been cold, so my daily walks are taking a hit)


QOTW: Favorite activities to do with your LO's when stuck inside?? I like to hold him and dance in the kitchen. It keeps him calm during the evening cranky hour, and the added bonus is a little workout for me. The heavier he gets, the nicer my arms look.

How did you do with your goals this past week?

Terrible. Lunches I did ok, but dinners were hit and miss. Did not drink enough water. Totally failed my zumba goals. I did go to yoga Thursday night, though, and I cut back on snacking this week.

Do you have any new goals for this week?

5 vegetarian dinners, 2 veggie lunches, postnatal yoga 1x, use water app to drink enough every day.

QOTW: Favorite activities to do with your LO's when stuck inside??

Sing songs and dance, watch the dog be silly, read books, nap.

How did you do with your goals this past week? Alright. Work is really gearing up (I'm posting this from work before I run home to see my child for 2 seconds before bed). I ate well, but still have yet to get my steps going. I know it's an excuse, but this time of year I'm strapped to a desk for 10-12 hours.

Do you have any new goals for this week? No. Just keep trackin' and steppin'.

QOTW: Favorite activities to do with your LO's when stuck inside?? (This may or may not be purely selfish.) We do a lot of coloring, and we've started playing hide-and-seek. We also cook a lot of kid-friendly meals together. Like I let her sprinkle the cheese and put veggies on her quesadillas. Hope you enjoyed your icy day!

Not a great week for me. Didn't get in my exercise and have been hit or miss with heathy food.

Goals starting tonight:
Plan and pack lunches for work, set up blender for morning green smoothies
3 exercise activities this week

QOTW: My goal for this in winter is to just make sure I'm engaging with DD1 throughout the day so we will play (Legos, little people dolls, craft, etc) and then I'll let her watch a movie or cartoon for a bit while I do some cooking or cleaning (will wear DD2to get stuff done) or will ask DD1 to help with folding laundry, cooking etc then back to playing.

How did you do with your goals this past week? I did pretty good but didn't do zumba on wii. For some reason I just can't get my act together to do stuff at home. According to my scale I'm down 13 lbs!! When I weigh in at the Scale back thing DH and I are doing it doesn't always show I've lost any. I blame it on when I weight at home it's in the morning before eating anything and when I weigh in at the other place I've eaten breakfast. Oh well!

Do you have any new goals for this week? Same old, same old

QOTW: Favorite activities to do with your LO's when stuck inside?? We play chase. He loves for us to chase him around. He crawls away and squeals, it's so cute!

<slinking in> I missed the mark on sugary beverages, but got the exercise in (I think) .

Hi

I did ok. Lots of hummus, fruit, and veggies, and a few short workouts. Cut out any type of comfort foods, and my red wine, but still having a mini can of Pepsi and caramels. Doing a lousy job at cutting my 2 cups of morning coffee to one.

My goal this week is to increase my cardio. I used to love long cardio workouts, but now 5 minutes in, I'm thinking about what I need to do.

QOTW: I put music on the surround sound, and Tate loves it. We have just started trying out crayons. We read books, play with balls, spin rings or play with cars on his table top. I rotate toys. Blow bubbles on the back porch. Ride on his radio flyer trike. Make blanket forts and bring his light up toys inside. Follow him around the house, ha ha. Piggy backs. Watch curious George on the big screen for 10 minutes ( that's all I get at 15 months). He loves to dance around with me while I hold him...now at 28lbs, we're lucky if we make it through an entire song. We tried to paint Daddy a picture- Complete debacle. Right now he just loves pointing at things while I name them. He actually sat by the fire in my lap pointing at a pottery barn catalog.
