First of all - Thank you so much for your love and support. I really appreciate it!! It helps propel me to move forward!! I am grateful for you!!!
Day 1 of my 7 Month Focus plan was AWESOME!!! For some reason, something inside me kicked in. It was like all the pieces of everything came together. The clouds parted if you know what I mean? Anyway, it was a great day!!!
I was able to get my chart done for tracking. I decided that I would focus on my 6 Most Important Things I need to do daily, that will help me achieve my goals.
1.) Exercise (Cardio and/or Weights)
2.) 10,000 Steps
3.) Calories - At or under 1700
4.) Food Journal / Record information into my Body Bugg
5.) Consume 100 oz of water
6.) Blog
My thinking is I can only focus on so many things. I decided that the 6 items I selected are things that I can really accomplish in a day. And if I do them, I will success and achieve my goals!!
Yesterday I hit all of my goals and then some!! Not only did I walk over 2 miles yesterday morning, but I also added some more. After work I plugged my Body Bugg in to see how many steps I had taken. It said around 6000. I immediately went to my hubby and said we need to go walk, I've got some steps to make up. In my mind, (which was still a little fuzzy yesterday), I thought I need to make up 6000 more steps to make my 10,000 steps for the day. Well 6 and 6 makes 12 not 10. Don't know what I was thinking!! Anyway we set out with a Pedometer on my hip, I wanted to see how far it would take to get in 6000 steps. So we set off. We walked and walked. When we finally got home after 4+ miles, I plugged my Bugg in and found we hit 16136 steps for the day. EXTRA CREDIT!!!!
Don't know what I was thinking. Anyway, I got it done!!
Yesterday was a great success and I'm off to a great start today!!
One thing I want to share. I noticed that it does take a lot of effort to make these goals happen. With so much effort going out, the last thing I wanted to do was cheat with anything!!! There was some candy in the house, my FAVORITE!!. But I was not going to mess up my perfect day for candy. NO WAY!!! Besides, with all of the exercise, good food and water. I was not hungry for it. AMAZING!!!
Well that's my nugget for the day.
Are you giving your plan your all? Lets do it today!!
Keep focused!!!!
Way to go, Joy! I love how you're focusing on just 6 things. I'm so proud of you for saying no to the candy - you are on your way!!
ReplyDeleteGood for you on not wanting the candy. Sometimes even my favorite candy is meaningless to me and sometimes it tortures me. I guess that means I'm human and still on the journey.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on keeping all six goals!
