Food: I did not do well this week, but this week is a new beginning.
Water: this is still a struggle for me. I need to drink more water.
Water: this is still a struggle for me. I need to drink more water.
Exercise: walking with the children in the mornings around our property.
Challenges: I need to up my exercise. I'd like to get a low impact video to do here in the house. I've been given the OK from the doctor to return to full activities with no restrictions. I'm still thinking of trying to find a Richard Simmons video...I know he is VERY...well you know....but I use to work out to his videos with great success.
Successes: eating one helping at supper time. I have started packing my Husband's lunch before we sit down to supper. That way he always has a healthy lunch for work and I do not have seconds.
Plans for the next week: drink more water!!
Weigh-in: I've stayed the same since the last time I weighed in. I guess that is good.
Helpful Hints: drink a full glass of very cold water before you eat, it will help you feel satisfied and not over eat.
