Wow. Keeping a food a journal and recording EVERYTHING I eat is such an eye opener. I do great for breakfast: whole grain, good protein, good fiber. But after that - what a mess! I work from home, so I usually eat leftovers from the night before for lunch. So, I need to prepare healthier dinners. And then my snacks...they're not snacks! They're essentially a fourth meal and not a healthy one at that. For dinners, I usually try for a lean protein, a vegetable, and a whole grain, but with two kids that are picky eaters (three if you count my husband), that's a frustrating endeavor. So, food, food, food...my goal for next week is to find healthy snack options.
As for exercise, I think I'm doing well. I go to the gym and on a weekly basis I try for: Mon - BodyStep, Tue - Yoga, Wed - BodyCombat,
Thu am - BodayFlow, and Thu pm - Zumba. That's five classes I strive for and on an average week, I'll make it to three of them. On an ideal week, when work isn't busy and the kids aren't sick, I can make it to all of the classes. I also want to try running...that's a goal for down the road. For right now, I'll be happy if I make it to four classes this week.
Hopefully with these two goals, I'll see more green up arrows this week.
