Let’s see, from last week:
-I did try to sit and enjoy everything I ate. I usually eat on my bed because I share an apartment and often the kitchen/living room is already occupied.
-I fell behind in recording everything I eat, but I didn’t stress about it too much. This week I am trying again partly because I am going to try to have bigger meals and fewer snacks.
-Moving 30 minutes a day is easy for me during the week because I walk to class.
-I didn’t have any fast food or wine impulse buys (beer and frozen pizza for watching the election results with Chris was planned). I did have Chipotle (half for leftovers the next day) which, although it isn’t fast food, really is not good for you when you can make your own yummy burrito with more veggies and less fat.
I picked pretty easy goals to start with so this week I am going to add on:
-Record everything I eat. I don’t sneak in too many extras, but this week, I am going to try to eat bigger breakfasts and lunches so I don’t eat so many snacks. I am curious to see if my calorie intake changes.
-Try to eat and enjoy at the table instead of in my room.
-Start every morning with 10 minutes of yoga (opening my charkras is my favorite morning sequence, sometimes with a few sun salutations) and go to the gym on the days I have time (mon, wed, and at least once on the weekend).
-No fast food or frozen food meals. I usually have a frozen meal or two during the week because it is so easy and so many out there are really tasty and pretty healthy (Amy’s, Kashi, etc). But, in the end, I know I can save money by making all my own meals. To help with this goal, I planned out what I will have for lunch and dinner for the week.
