Wellness & Fitness Update

Wellness:

I have been eating so much better! I went to Trader Joes and Whole Foods and stocked up on a variety of foods to put in my salads. I make dinner almost every night for my family using a website http://www.foodfit.com/ to help me plan healthy meals. Knowing that I have all the ingredients I need to make a delicious healthy meal at home inspires me to cook. I plan every Sunday for the entire week. I am drinking soda only once a week and drink mostly water during the day. I have been drinking unsweetened tea as well. My energy levels have improved with these changes.

Fitness:

I walked uphill 3 miles (pushing a double stroller) today and it was difficult but I was proud of myself for being able to do it. I did not become short of breath and my muscles didn't ache. My cardio is much better. My crunches have gone from 15 in the beginning to 30 to 45 to now 65!!!

Wellness and fitness update!

I have done really well sticking to my weekly menu and not eating out. It really helps having a menu planned out with all the ingredients on hand so you aren't tempted to just go out. I ate out one day this week at Burger King but it was really gross so I don't think I have to worry about eating there again. I have been drinking water....yay! I still drink soda but only once a day. :-)

I have been doing my exercise...lots of walking and my crunches are getting easier. I think my arms appear more tone from the arm curls.
