Regardless....the month of March ended and that means it deserves the monthly review....So here we go!
1. Track Every bite This was spot on at the beginning of the month but by the end of the month when I was sinking into my state of panic, this became much more hit or miss. This is absolutely the easiest goal to reach and yet I failed!
2. Build my Savings With everything going on, this did not happen.....nor will it be happening for the unforseeable future. We are currently a one income family and that is already stretching us to the limit (and possibly beyond the limit depending on how much unemployment comes our way).
3. Weigh less at the end of the month (who cares how much as long as it is less!) SKIP this one please......ok ok ok, I didn't lose...in fact I gained about three pounds. FAILLURE
4. Be active at least 20 minutes four times a week! WIN WIN WIN! I did this one!!!!!!!
5. Keep my eating in check at least 6 days of the week (Allowing one cheat meal) and never never never go over my limit in weekly points in a week! (And currently I am not swapping and using my fit points!) Failure alert! This did NOT happen. At the beginning of the month I was barely keeping it together and by the end of the month I was way off the rails!
6. Average 5,000 steps a day! (While this is still an average, I will be looking more closely at my daily totals to try to avoid the hikes carrying the rest of my slacker days! This one is another win! WOOHOOO! All of those lunchtime walks (beginning of the month) and my sporadic runs at lunch (end of month) coupled with the weekend hikes made this EASY!
I'm not proud of the month of March. Not proud at all. But I can look at it as a lesson learned. That is exactly how I plan on moving forward.....the past is a lesson learned and those lessons are going to make me stronger and better!!!!!! SO what is happening for this upcoming month? What are my goals/?? Almost exactly the same....with the exception of the savings. That one is on hold!
1. Track Every bite
2. Build my Savings----- This one is on hold until life returns to normal
3. Weigh less at the end of the month (who cares how much as long as it is less!)
4. Be active at least 20 minutes four times a week!
5. Keep my eating in check at least 6 days of the week (Allowing one cheat meal) and never never never go over my limit in weekly points in a week! (And currently I am not swapping and using my fit points!)
6. Average 5,000 steps a day! (While this is still an average, I will be looking more closely at my daily totals to try to avoid the hikes carrying the rest of my slacker days!
So there you have it. I am moving forward with a plan in place. I am moving forward with a motivation in my veins. I am moving forward with excitement to see what in the world I can do to better myself this month!
