mars2kids's Journal, 14 September 2015

Well, I'm back today with a more positive attitude. Hopefully I'll be able to keep this up all week. No workout this morning, but healthy snacks and lunch planned and maybe a quick workout while dinner is cooking tonight. I did get workouts in over the weekend and that was good. My eating wasn't the best, but I did eat fruit for snacks and made sure to eat veggies at least with dinner, so I feel good about that.

This week I have my lunches planned and have plenty of healthy options to snack on so I'm hoping that will help me stay out of the junk. I don't have much for junk at home, but right now at work there is all sorts of chocolate. It's going to be a chocolate filled office now through the holidays. The Halloween candy has already come out.

I'm also going to try to walk for at least 20 mins while I wait for my daughter at volleyball practice a few times this week. I have about an 45 mins to wait and if I walk for about 20 or 25 and read for my class for the remainder that will help me get some steps in. This week I'll have to bring a change of clothes with me though because it's going to be HOT. Today I'm just reading because I don't have clothes or shoes, silly me, but tomorrow I'm going to get some walking done. If I can get my regular workouts in along with some walks that should help get me back on track.

I don't know about anyone else, but with fall getting closer I'm ready to get rid of the hot weather. I don't want freezing weather or snow, just nice fall days that I'm comfortable in a sweatshirt and jeans. I love fall, so I'm ready for it to get here. Push this hot weather out and bring on the cooler temps!!

I hope everyone has a great Monday!!

I think just like 'wearing white', excessive heat/humidity should be outlawed after Labor Day! :) The next Sassy challenge has a daily fruits/veggies component, so that is right in your 'wheelhouse' these days!! I like your walking/studying plan (wouldn't it be great if you could do BOTH effectively at the same time for the whole 45 minutes)! Office goodies -- that's a tough one . . . just do your best to avoid -- I saw one study that suggested people are much more likely to partake if the candy is visible (i.e., in a clear container or sitting in a bowl) . . . if that's the case where you work, maybe you could pick up some cheap decorative containers (with tops) at the Dollar Store to give to those who bring it in? Then you'd be 'popular' AND thin! Also, noticed the Special K in your breakfast (I'm a cereal fan, too, but have cut back since starting this new WOE -- have you tried the new Kellogg's 'Origins' line? Haven't compared the nutrition, but I'm betting it may have more fiber and less sugar than the Special K varieties. -- I've been eating the Ancient Grains one.)

I love your positive outlook its very refreshing . I used to do a lot of walking during my kids and grandkids practices. I couldn't stand just sitting there watching and doing nothing. Its great to make good use of your time . Just keep thinking this when your at wor kand Chocolate is everywhere ,,, and if you don't believe me just Google it "SUGAR IS EVIL " !!!!!!

Way to plan ahead. I find that when i micro manage my meals i do alot better and stay away from the carbage. 20 min a day is all it takes. Keep it up.. And I totally agree with the weather.. its been nice and breezy lately .. hope it sticks.. Happy Monday to you too
