As I mentioned last posting, adding an alternate goal really gave me a boost this week. I managed to meet 3 goals every day, like this:
Tuesday: walked, ate wheat-free, got my veggies (13 pts)
Wednesday: packed lunch to work, walked, ate wheat-free, got my veggies (13 pts)
Thursday: packed lunch, ate wheat-free, got my veggies (13 pts)
Friday: walked, ate wheat-free, got my veggies (13 pts)
Saturday: walked, ate wheat-free, got my veggies (13 pts)
Sunday: walked, ate wheat-free, got my veggies (13 pts)
Monday: packed lunch to work, walked, got my veggies (13 pts)
Wednesday was the day that I was really tempted with that mid-afternoon snickerdoodle but resisted because I'd written down the wheat-free goal and I didn't want to disappoint myself. Wow! The power of goal-setting!
I noticed last week that Sunday was a challenge for veggie-eating, so this past Sunday, I made a point of having some at lunch time as well as dinner. That worked well.
Since I'm doing OK with getting those veggies in, I'm raising the ante for this week and going with 4-5 servings of veggies.
Total for the week: 91 for my goals, 5 for my recipe, 15 for posting 3 times = 111
PS. You all are doing great - thanks for sharing all your challenges and progress!! It's an inspiration to read what you've been doing. Helps me realize I can do better!

Great job! I'm impressed you passed on the snickerdoodle. I'm not sure I would have had the will-power.
ReplyDeleteThanks - it wasn't easy! I thought it was hilarious that the first reason I passed on it was that I'd written the wheat-free goal down, not that I knew I'd feel sick later!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how having that goal written down and having other people to encourage you really helps!
ReplyDeleteIT really, really does ... Good job mamacita!
ReplyDeleteI'd better post my own update. *hangs head in shame*
