Interesting Charts

So all in all I’m proud. Yes, I wish I could have worked out more, dang right foot. Yes, I could have worked out on my vacations but had way too much fun in Auburn and Chicago to worry about my waistline (true story). Yes, I had a few too many ‘high’ nutrition days, but if you look at the chart some were very close to being in (really! hehe), and the others were fun nights where I drank too much (clearly my #1 vice).
Mostly, I’m so glad that I’ve stuck to Spark People and to my blog. It is keeping me honest and that’s really what it’s about for me – not letting myself go into denial (that pizza didn’t count!) haha. Overall, I’m just glad that I found something that works for me, something I can continue doing, something that’s FREE. Yeah, I said it. FREE. So I have more $ to spend on clothes and accessories!
Goals for October
- Start tracking measurements OR BMI… not sure which
- Have NO low nutrition days
- Have 7 or less high nutrition days
- Work out at least 1 day on vacation (have 3 trips planned in October)
- Lose 4 pounds (roughly 1 pound per week) so I’ll weigh 122
- Do 50 miles of cardio (roughly 2.5 miles/day 5 days/week; so I must do 2.5 miles a day for at least 20 of October’s 31 days)
- Introduce 3 new, healthy Hungry Girl recipes at home
- Introduce 3 new, healthy snacks at home
- Switch from Whiskey to Vodka to save LOTS of calories
- Limit beer to 3/weekend
I’m going to post these on the side – I feel good about these goals and am ready for a new month – yay!!!
