Sunday Report Card
Weight Goals:
1. Calories under 1600 day - already blew that with a trip to the chinese restaurant for lunch with the hubby. We do that about once a month. M(NO), T(NO), W(yes!!), T(nope), F(so close but NO), S(nope, but close....had pizza for lunch in class ), S(no, took kids out for pizza...did eat a huge salad first though)
2. Drink 80 oz water daily - M(no, 70), T(no, 70), W(yes, 112oz!), T(no, 50), F(no, 64), S(not even close), S(ummm NO)
3. Work out M, W & F - M(no), W(yes), F(no but so much housework was done it was worth it)
4. Stretches & relaxing T & T - T(no), T(no)
Non-weight goals
1. Don't let my younger son get to me - M(yes!), T(yes!), W(yes!), T(yes!) - This has to be a record!!, F(yes!), S(he almost got me), S(he was really pushing me but I didn't give in)
2. Look further into foster parenting (classes start tonight) - M(yes), T(nothing to do), W(read through some of the orientation manual), T(another class done!), F(filled out a little more paperwork), S(another 6 hr class completed and a ton of paperwork done at home), S(didn't do anything)
3. Spring clean (including closets...off Thurs & Fri for this) - T(yes, cleaned for five hours including one closet), F(yes, cleaned for at least 8 hrs with 5-6 being vigorous LOL...all closets done), S(moved all furniture in family/dining rooms and vacuumed & dusted everything!)
4. Outside yard work this weekend S(no, but ended up in foster parent class for 6 hrs so didn't have time and it is freakin cold out there!, S(too cold and had inside cleaning to finish)
So this week I learned that I am not too great at keeping up with goals that I set. This coming week I will be revising my goals to a more attainable level. I think achieving them will help to give me a boost instead of looking at the NO's all the time.
Good work & congrats to all of you who kept your goals this week!!!
I did have a weigh in this morning and lost exactly 1 lb last week. Not what I wanted, but considering how off my whole week was it is better than a gain, so I will take it. I just know I need to step it up this week and get back to it! [/color]
