I check in here every Friday, but my fitness week is Monday – Sunday. So my check-ins are always about a week behind.

Last Week (December 24 – December 30):

Probably my worst “exercise” week of the year. Holidays. Traveling. Being lazy. I’m okay with that! As I look back on the week, there are several times if I’d paid attention to my stats, I could have reached 10,000 steps or closed some rings, but I just “checked out” most days.

My Movement:
Monday: 35 minutes walking, 10,797 steps/day; calories over
Tuesday: 48 minutes walking, 9,765 steps/day; calories over
Wednesday: no exercise, 7,492 steps/day; calories over
Thursday: no exercise, 5,176 steps/day; calories over
Friday: no exercise, 6,570/day; calories over
Saturday: 42 minutes walking, 9,253 steps/day; calories over
Sunday: 47 minutes walking, 11,467 steps/day; calories over

Goals for December:

Did I meet my goals last week?

  • Close all three “rings” in Apple Watch, 5 days per week – 3/5
  • Move with purpose (exercise) at least 30 minutes, 6 days per week – 4/6
  • Track my caloric intake using the LoseIt! app – 7/7
  • Stick within my allotted calorie consumption each week – over
  • Get in yoga at least once per week – 0/1
  • Drink 48 oz of non-caffeinated water/beverages, 7 days per week – 6/7
  • Walk 10,000 steps per day, 6 days per week – 2/6

GOALS FOR JANUARY:

A new month and new year ahead! I’ve noticed I’ve lost some of my drive to make sure I get out every day, but I need to keep myself moving, especially during these cold months. I’ve taken a good look at where I am and where I want to be (staying fit, maintaining weight) and these are my goals for January:

  • Close all three “rings” in Apple Watch, 5 days per week
  • Move with purpose (exercise) at least 30 minutes, 5 days per week
  • Track my caloric intake using the LoseIt! app every day
  • Stick within my allotted calorie consumption each week
  • Get in yoga at least once per week
  • Drink 48 oz of non-caffeinated water/beverages, 7 days per week
  • Walk 10,000 steps per day, 5 days per week
  • Reach out to help a fellow FitReader, at least once per week
So are you ready to lace up your sneakers? Are you ready to up your commit to fit?
