Holy Moly! 10 pounds! I am totally shocked. I have lost weight every single week of the challenge. It is a great feeling. I am starting to see the changes in the way my clothes fit and I feel really good. The weekends have always been the worst for me, I can't imagine how I would do if I was lucky enough to be a SAHM. But I have been working on this hurdle for a long time. Making good decisions when I don't have to think about cooking for anyone else, and when I can eat whenever I am hungry. During the week this isn't a problem, I pack my lunch and snacks and I don't have to think about it again. Weekends that all goes out the window. Until this weekend, I was more careful, more vigilant with my choices. I didn't eat whenever I wanted, I didn't eat junk because I wasn't cooking for anyone else. In fact I made a nice roast chicken this weekend. I think having a successful weekend really helped me lose this week, I didn't have to try to fix a rotten weekend, I just stayed steady. It took me a long time to learn that lesson....ahhh but there it is.
So as far as the fitness/non-fitness challenges go, I didn't do as well. I did get out and get 2 miles in. I wish I could say it was more, but I am only counting the official miles of exercise, I can't count the number of miles I put down in a day running around taking care of kids and house and husband and at the grocery store or getting the mail, if that was the case I am sure most of us would have huge numbers to report. I did stay away from the trans-fat for the most part. I know I got in more than I should have, but I was more conscious of them this week. Still doing really well with the water and getting better with the fruits and veggies. I am sure if I keep working on it someday getting all the fruits and veggies in will be second nature, until then I am trying to get them in with every meal somehow.
So how did you all do?
