Mini-Goals

Started doing my food and exercise diary. I found that once I start writing, it won't stop flowing. It has allowed me to explore my thoughts about this process, and I feel as though I am kept accountable because I am writing everything down. For awhile, I thought I was more of an emotional eater, but I found that eating doesn't really revolve around that. The most common reason for eating is shear boredom. If I am not doing something, I feel the need to snack. And snacking is a big part of my life. I realized that I need to add in healthy snacks like apples and almond butter, almonds, carrots, etc. I also found that my overeating -- at some level anyway -- is caused by a lack of defined dinner/lunch time. My hubby varies daily on when he comes home. I need to talk to him about this.

Did pilates focused on buns and thighs this morning. Wow, wow, wow! My legs are really rubbery! It kicked my ass, and I am super excited to continue with it! We are going by the rec center tomorrow to renew my membership. Hopefully on Monday I'll get back into the swing of it.

Giving it some thought, it would be better to make mini-goals and reward myself. However, these mini-goals will be heading to one main goal: HEALTHY LIVING!

My Mini-Goals:
  • Keep up with 4 week running program - daily
  • Add in pilates twice a week
  • Try to drink more water
  • Keep an exercise and food diary
  • (If I decide to try weight watchers, keep it up for a month to determine whether I can succeed on it)
  • Cut down soda pop intake.

After that, shopping at Sephora!! w00t, w00t!!

I toyed with the idea of fully transposing my diary into this format, but I think it would be a HUGE undertaking. Suffice to say, I'm going to try and put the main things up here. Here's hoping and praying that I can make this lifestyle change and grab a hold of health with both hands!
