Losing 15 For Beach/Disney June Trip!

[TrueBlueDory]

Goals For January:

1. Lose 5 lbs (should be the easiest of the 15 to lose)
2. Exercise 500 min
3. Drink 2 or less Sprites a day
4. Eat at least 1 fruit/ 1 veg a day
5. Have healthy snack options ready every day for myself/family
6. I will only eat at specified scheduled times during the day.

About Me: I am 30-years-old and I am trying to lose 15 lbs that have "hung around" since my soon-to-be 2-year-old was born. I have very unhealthy eating habits. I tend get most of my calories from coffee/sweets/soda and cut out fruits and veges. I have very little energy late in the afternoon/evening and I know this is because of my eating habits and lack of exercise. Most of all, I know this is setting a terrible example for my kids. My kids and husband are the best motivators of all!


Starting Tuesday with 25 min aerobics and eating journal.

Thanks GoldCupMom! I think I have made January goals pretty attainable, if I can stick with it...


1. Gained 2lbs. I was afraid this would happen at first. I have been eating way too much during the holidays.

2. DId step workout on Fit TV (love this channel) 25 min.

3. Had 1 Sprite.

4. I had 1 orange/ Olive Garden House Salad for dinner.

5. Breakfast: 2 c coffee I am not a breakfast person, but I can't live without my coffee!

Lunch: 2 pieces of Pizza and a Sprite (at a party)

Snack: Cheesecake (at a party) and 3 pieces of Choc Candy

Dinner: House Salad From Olive Garden with dressing and crutons.
These are great and HUGE!

Snack: Orange
Green Tea before bed

Didn't do great today. I really should have passed on the cheesecake... I had a playdate with my kids friends. We were busy! I was able to squeeze in exercise. Tomorrow I have to take down the Christmas lights on the outside of the house and that is serious exercise climbing up and down the ladder at least 50 times. My legs hurt for days after putting them up!

1. I am not weighing myself the rest of the week. That was such a downer yesterday.

2. 25 min aerobics 50/500 for January

3. Not even 1 full Sprite

4. Banana and Orange/no vege

5. Breakfast: 4 c coffee

Lunch: Banana and Peanut Butter Sand on Wheat Bread with Sprite

Snack: A handful of choc candy, orange, green tea

I don't know if it was the aerobics or what, but I seemed to have more energy today. My muscles are sore, so the exercising is working. I need to work on eating veges tomorrow and no more pizza this week!!!!!
