Starting over.. and over?
So I started over March 7, 2011 and here I am... almost a month later! LOL I'm going back and forth on whether or not to start a whole new fat blog or just continue with this one. Part of me wants a clean start, but knowing I can look back on where I started and where I am now is a huge motivation. So for now, I'll keep this one. I'm back on SparkPeople (www.sparkpeople.com) again and feeling good. I officially started the first week today and one thing I've changed is not weighing myself religiously like I use to. Mainly because the one thing that would set me off is working hard, getting on the scale and seeing that it hadn't moved a pound. OR even half a pound. I bought the sparkpeople book for my Kindle and have loved every page. It talks straight forward about changing your lifestyle and not necessarily going on a "diet". This weeks starts the first "Fast Break" where I write down my goals, including my fitness, nutritional and motivational goals for this week. To start my week goals are as follows: Nutritional - Eat 2 servings of fruit or vegetables Fitness - Do 10 minutes of exercise Motivational - Tell someone your goals Long Term Goals: Get my weight back down to 140 within the next year Establish a healthy lifestyle Run a half marathon For the week long goals, Im shooting for 5 out of the next 7 days. While I want to do all 7, I will not be upset with myself if I only get 5 days. Im also tracking my food on sparkpeople to really see what Im putting in my mouth everyday. Its a great tool and a real eye-opener! I look forward to this new journey and invite anyone to join me!
