Monday Maddness

Happy Monday!

Mondays are just awful for me.  Not only is it the first day back to work after a weekend, but I have to be in two different places at two different times tonight!  My daughter has dance class, my son has Boy Scouts, and they both overlap.  I end up bringing my daughter to dance, then my son to Scouts, then back to pick up my daughter, then back to pick up my son before we get home.  Before all this, I have to make sure both my kids have had dinner and homework is done.

I am not crazy about Mondays.

Anyway, I thought I would give an update of my progress so far.

I began Take Shape for Life Monday, December 29th.  Today I start week 10.  For the past 9 weeks, I have lost 18.5 pounds.  That is about 2 pounds per week.

Have I been perfect?  Nope.

If I had been perfect, I bet my weightloss would have been bigger.  But, I'm not perfect!

My coach just texted me, asking if I could make a mini-goal for myself.  That mini-goal is to make sure I get all 5 MF meals in every day.  I am making a promise to myself, that I am going to work towards that goal, but I am also going to add to not take any BLTs.  BLTs are Bites, Licks, Tastes.  You know when you are getting some goldfish crackers for the kids, and you just take a few a couple and pop them in your mouth before you hand them over?

Yea, those.

All those little things add up to big things!

I have noticed that I am taking more BLTs than I have in the past, so no more of those!

So, mini-goal this week:  all 5 MF meals, every day, and no BLTS!

    Those BLT's are deadly if you aren't careful. I also have a mini-goal. Mine is to get up drink water and move for 5 minutes every time I am tempted to eat off plan.

      Deadly is right! And those BLTs are often forgotten, so you think you are on track, but you aren't! I like your mini-goal!!!
