Goals for the week:
Stay within daily Points+ allowance for 5 of the 7 days. - I achieved 2 of the 7 days. Not superb.
Potential Challenges + Solutions:Planned Activity:
- Weekend lunch date with the ladies. I was proud of how I did with this, eating only half the sandwich and a few fries.
- Cookie Madness. I definitely indulged not only that night, but one other night later this week. *Sigh* Moving on...
I went to the gym on Wednesday and did 37 minutes on the elliptical. I'll take it! I earned 4 Activity Points+ and was pleased with that effort, even if I didn't meet my goal of 2 days (though totally doable, someone is just l-a-z-y!).
Here are my new goals for the week.
Goals for the week:
Stay within daily Points+ allowance for 5 of the 7 days. If I have to delve in to the Weekly Points+ allowance, I want to use no more than 39 of them, leaving a balance of 10.
Potential Challenges + Solutions:
- Office Holiday Happy Hour: There will be drinking and eating. Thankfully most of the food being served I don't like. To combat this I plan to eat my lunch before the HH (it starts at 12). I will definitely want to have a drink, but will try to limit it to no more than 2-3.
- Going over daily Points+ allowance: I struggle with this every week. Rarely am I ever able to achieve a perfect week of staying within my daily Points+. You know why? Poor planning. As they say, without a plan, plan to fail. What I need to do to stay on track is make sure my breakfasts/lunches are packed the night before. Also, I need to make sure I have plenty of healthful snacks, including 0 Points+ fruits/vegetables to snack on when I have cravings and 0 Points+ left for the day.
I wrote up an activity schedule for the week, but realizing that I have to reacclimate myself to getting back to the gym, I'm going to aim for 2 days of the gym this week again. If I do more, then it will be a bonus. Also, I tried out that new feature on eTools where it gives you a weekly Activity Points+ to work toward, and mine is 14. I'm going to try to reach that this week in whatever way I can.
What are your weekend plans? I still need to get some Christmas shopping done. Joel and I are going to check out a wedding venue on Saturday, and we're going to take our Christmas card picture as well. I'm so behind this year :(. It's making me crazy!
