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 (September 28 – October 4, 2020):
Last week was the third week that I really focused on my goals. I mostly did well, but my folks were visiting and we had a couple bigger meals that included wine. Overall, I felt pretty good, but noticed the days I ate/drank more, I felt kind of icky. So I need to remember this when “tempted” again.
Weight: I was up 0.6 pounds last week, staying just below my starting weight from January. I need to remember that I won’t make progress if I ignore my goals.
Goals: Overall, I did pretty well with my goals. I found focusing on being below my caloric intake each day really helped. I think the reason I was up the little bit of weight this week is because of too much wine and I had a big eating day on Sunday (the day before I weigh in).
Don’t forget to join the Facebook Group and check in with us there!
