Survivor 3!!!
So today starts off the 3rd Survivor challange! And I think I’m more excited for this to start than I have the previous ones! Our team is going to be awesome! And now that I’m feeling better than I have been in the past couple of weeks, I’m ready to kick some butt!
I got on the treadmill today for the first time all week, and got in 40 minutes! I took it pretty slow, I was afraid that if I started breathing too hard that it would make me start coughing and wheezing. I did pretty well, it’s amazing what a week of being a lazy bum will do to you though. It made it seem alot harder than it should have. Tomorrow I’m going to aim for an hour!
My personal goal this week is to log all my calories for the week, make sure I get in all my water and then some extra, and to work out at least 5 days from today until next Saturday. I really want to lose the one pound I’ve gained this past week, and then another on top of that. I’m also going to try to stay away from all processed foods, and force my self to cook my own dinner every night (I really need to stop relying on smartones and lean cusines!) I know I can do it… it’s just a matter of not being lazy and just doing it. I’ve been drinking alot of tea these past couple weeks being sick, and it’s great. I’m going to try to use that as a subsitite for my coffee and hopefully it will help me cut back to the one cup a day I’d like to be able to have. I hate getting a headache if I don’t have my coffee, and I need to not be so dependante on caffine! (haha the tea I drink is caffine free herbal tea) I think the tea should help (plus I’ve learned that it’s great when I’m feeling kinda hungry, but I’m not really hungry enough to eat… so hopefully it it will help cut back on snacking) I’m totally addicted to the sleepytime tea…. it’s amazing!
I am so happy that you are excited about the new challenge! It is nice to have you back to your normal happy and (somewhat) healthy self! You are going to kick some tushy, I know it! Which means that I am gonna have to work even HARDER to beat you! ahh! lol.
Way to go on the treadmill, glad to hear it went well. It sounds like you have a plan for success, and I know you are going to have an amazing week.
I rely too much on LC and WW meals too
Its better than fast food damage.
Congrats on getting back on the treadmill…never easy after being sick. Its scary when you think you lost what you had worked for prior to that, but I think it all comes back pretty quick.
Have a great week!
Drinking enough water has been difficult for me, so today I decided soda has got to go, to make sure I drink more water! The challenge is fun so far. I love feeling accountable to everyone.
You are on fire and are such an inspiration. Keep up the great work. I told myself NO MORE TEA until I drink much of what I have, but I think do to some sleep issues, some Sleepytime is in order…. It is not just chammomile is it? Peppermint and what else? All good stuff as I recall. Keep up the good work Shawna! *hugs*
