WEEK 2 Recap
After what can only be described as a 'shocker' of a week, I was almost not going to post this. But I wanted to be honest, not only to the minimal number of people who read this blog (I think there are two of you), but also to myself. I don't want to list excuses, other than I've been a bit of an emotional wreck this week, on top of having a really bad back and neck, causing pins and needles in one arm. Anyway, excuses, excuses, here's how my goals went:
> limit takeaway dinners to one for the week : we had two (pizza & macca's)
> drink more than 1.5 litres of water each day : nailed this one, with 2 litres on most days
> limit softdrink to one for the week : I ended up having two
> walk to work 4 out of 5 days : miserably, I only walked to work once
> some form of weight training x 1 : nope
> stretch or do a small yoga routine 4 out of 7 nights : did some stretching once, and that was after my walk
> wake up at 6am each morning : did this twice, and both times actually woke up at 5.45am, most other days it was 6.30, so there was a little improvement this week
> lose 0.5kg : if by 'lose', you mean 'gain', then yes I did....
So onward and upward for Week 3...
WEEK 3 Goals
Here are my goals for Week 3 (new/edited ones are shown in bold):
[edited : after going to chiropractor for the pins and needle issue, I am not allowed to walk with my back-pack to work, for four weeks, on top of not being allowed to do any running, pilates, or weights]
> limit takeaway dinners to one for the week
> drink more than 2.0 litres of water each day
> limit softdrink to one for the week
> walk home from work 4 out of 5 days
> neck stretches 5 out of 7 nights (excluding nights where I've been to the chiropractor)
> wake up at 6am each morning
> lose 0.5kg
As you can see, I'm pretty much keeping the same goals this week....
