Alan works odd shifts so he doesn’t keep the typical Monday to Friday and so we tend to only have Sunday’s to spend all day together. Last week Alan bought these tabletop date night cards. It’s a small pack of about 150 – 200 cards and on each one is a fun thing to do on a date! We decided to try it out yesterday and our card told us have a Hawaiian night; dress up in shorts and Hawaiian shirts and grill some fish!
Since neither of us eat fish we made our own night! We cleared out the dining table and put a blanket down for a picnic and I made some homemade Pina Coladas in tiki mugs (and umbrellas):
Goals for last week included:
Workout goal: Continue to work out even when Alan’s off all week
Nutrition: No overeating at dinner at least 3 days this week
Other: Set alarm for 7am
Rewards: Get a new pair of pants!
How did it go? My workout and nutrition goals were awesome! I worked out every week day last week and I exercised wonderful portion control 5 out of 7 days last week! Sadly, my goal to get up at 7am did not happen. Monday I forgot to set my alarm and the other days I just hit the snooze too many times! I think I was trying to do too much too soon so I think that, if I do want to get up at 7am I’ll have to start getting up earlier in increments instead!
Am I going to get the new pair of pants? YES! Although getting up early didn’t really work out I’m happy about the other goals!
Week 2 Goals
Goals for last week included:
Workout goal: Stick to recovery schedule! This is my last week of TurboFire and it includes a lot of easier workouts and my tendency would normally be to not follow it and do some tougher workouts. I need this recovery schedule as I’m starting a new workout and today I woke up with a sensitive tummy and a semi-sore throat. If I’m getting sick, I need to stick to this recovery schedule so that I don’t make myself worse!
Nutrition: Again, no overeating at dinner at least 3 days this week
Other: Set alarm for 7:45am 4x this week
Reward: Get new eyeshadow, lipstick, nail polish and mascara!
Workouts for the week (all TurboFire):
Mon. – Fire 45EZ Class + Stretch 10
Tues. – Fire 55EZ Class
Wed. – Abs 10 + 40 minutes of yoga
Thurs. – Fire 4EZ Class + Stretch 10
Fri. – Abs 10 + 40 minutes of yoga
Sat. – 45 minutes on the elliptical
Sun. – Rest
Today’s workout was good but I had to take it a bit easier as I was feeling pretty rundown although I’m fine now. I had to take a break at the end of each transition for a drink of water but I still gave it my best!
