2. Progress on last week's activities:
Well, I did very well with water today. I finished off 16oz before I left work. I can't remember the last time I did that! I meant to finish the other 16oz when I got home. But that hasn't happened yet.
We ate at home every weekday so far. Even had some left overs for Monday's dinner which never happens!
3. Activities for this coming week:
1. Walk down the stairs instead of using elevator after work.
2. Eat a home cooked meal 3 times this week.
3. Work out at gym 1 time this week.
4. Drink at least 8oz of water each after each nursing/pumping session.
5. Pole class 1 time this week.
4. My thoughts on the last week/my activities:
I am hoping I measured the correct areas on my hips, waist, thighs, and arms. My arms were tricky. I measured each of them about three times and got slightly different numbers each time. I really wish I had the time to do the measurements this morning when my stomach was empty. That's going to be the hardest measurement to look at and the hardest part to make smaller. I think.
Overall I think I did pretty well. And I'm pretty proud of myself. I worked out 3 times in the last week and have been pretty good at limiting my portions (I've said no to the second helping of spaghetti and pizza). And I've been eating a lot of salads and fruit at work.
The other night Hubby mentioned he had lost a few pounds since we moved into the apartment. He thinks it's the mini-chicken sandwhich he gets from KFC at lunch time (I think that's where they are from?). I really think it's more that we've been eating in instead of out. And since our freezer is smaller here, it's mostly loaded with breastmilk. This hasn't left much room for his ice cream!
It sounds as if you have done really well with everything this week!! My husband and I were stuck in a stint of eating out way too much but now that is one of my main goals... to eat at home almost all the time... and it definitely helps! :) Great to hear your hubby is losing a few lbs too!
ReplyDeleteWe have had to limit our eating out too and I've noticed a weight difference in both of us too. Great job this week!
