Fitness Friday

Welcome back!!  I missed you guys yesterday. I has such a busy day - by the time I was able to get to my computer, I could barely keep my eyes open!! I knew that anything I would post would not be coherent, so I decided to do the only thing that made sense - run to bed. 

Today is Friday - woo-hoo!! Even though I do not work outside my home anymore, I still get excited about Fridays, funny huh? Well, I decided to start making some lifestyle changes and wanted to share them with you all. I am hoping that my accountability to my bloggy friends will help keep me on track. Now that you are all reading what I am doing - or not doing, I am sure that will give me some extra motivation to keep going. 

Since I have turned 30 recently, I want to make some changes so that I can be a healthier person. Each Friday I am going to share what I have been doing to loose all the baby weight I still carry (yes, I know that my baby is going on 5 - but it still makes me feel better to say that!)

I am also going to be linking up with Brenda at The Family Revised for her Fitness Friday challenges. Hope you will join me too! 

Here are the changes I am working on making:

Drink more water - lots more!!

Eat less - don't keep eating because it is SO good; also no mindless snacking!

Make healthier food choices.

Exercise regularly.

With my goals posted, here is what I have been doing this past week:

I have been drinking a lot of water.  (This I started last year when my migraines were an almost daily thing.) I have not been buying soda when I go to the grocery store, so that helps. Also, the funny thing is, the more water you drink, the more you want!  And, now that I do not drink soda as much as I used too - I do not crave them, I am craving cold water..

I started exercising, because I want to feel better. Below is a list of what I did this week:

Friday: Walked 2 miles at the track

Saturday: Walked 1.5 miles at the track

Sunday - I rested

Monday - Completed a 45 min Pilates work out

Tuesday- Completed the same work out

Wednesday - Walked for 1 miles and ran for 1 mile (yes, I ran - can you believe it??)

Thursday - Nothing - I was so tired!

Friday - Pilates work out

Looking over that list, I can NOT believe all I did!! I hope that this coming week, I can keep on track. I am praying that God will help me to stay disciplined. this is a change I truly want to make! Tune in next week to see how I do!
