Healthy habits 11/16

shedev

I had a good week. I did really well with portions and lost a few lbs. I'm still a few above my average. Exercise was average, I seem to be in a funk that I can't get out of. True winter has hit Cleveland, and I'm trying to adjust. We had our first snow warnings of the year this week.

Brrrrr on the snow!! Congrats on a good week!

I had an okay week. Only one trainer session but I did a boot camp class and half a sweaty hour on the stationary bike, plus I have been running around like a madwoman lifting furniture and doing DIY projects, and somehow I managed to drop a couple of pounds myself. So I'll take it!

Now if I were really wanting to be healthy I would toss the leftover English trifle I made for last night's dinner party (nine egg yolks, three pints of heavy cream) instead of eating it like I did for lunch today...

Mmmm...trifle! DH and #1 son are doing the cooking, and this was a very good week, food-wise.

Exercise-wise, 2 runs, 2 swims, and 1 bike. No worries about weight...

I can't get my digestion situation sorted out and it is really messing with my energy, comfort, and even how clothes fit. I ran last monday, but have been up and down with my body not digesting food all week. I promised the SO that I'd start doing more cardio because he is concerned about my symptoms, but I'm without gym access this week. I'm hoping to take a walk tomorrow, and maybe sneak a run in on Wed. morning.

Sorry to hear that Elly....even short walks or runs (15-20 min) can be better than nothing and make you feel so much better.

Well done Shedev, Miss Mary and Runcarla.

Steady week here derailed by ear infection, which I am now almost over. Very sore for a couple of days.

I had a pretty good week although I felt really weak once I was finally able to work out again! But, oh well . . . not going to stress about that! I'm just thankful that I can exercise.
So - I made it to boot camp for 5 sessions and really pushed it. I carried around with me during the class a 10 pound weight and wow - did that ever make a difference!
Tomorrow (Monday) will mark the last day of the 6-Week Game Changer Challenge that I've been participating in. I've gotten so much out of it - and have even enjoyed cooking meals and learning new recipes! Hope to keep it up even though it ends tomorrow!

I had a very busy week last week and didn't have much time to get to the grocery store for fresh fruits and veggies, which I normally snack on. I did get through it and everything should calm down now.

So I maintained a little higher than my goal, and I didn't get much exercise, but again, this week everything will change. Also, I haven't had much time for YLF--and that makes it harder to keep my motivation.

Well, I didn't go on any walks in the cold. Exercise was half intense, half skipped, and I ate more on the weekend. So I have a little work to do.

Diet hasn't been that great but I've been managing the exercise (minus the weights.) Things have been hectic but hope to get back to my usual routine soon. Weight is the same so I can't complain. Hope that everyone has a great week!

I've had to take it easy for a couple of weeks after overdoing some painting that caused radiating arm pain on both sides - yikes! Had to take a break from doing weights. Anyway, it's slooowly getting better. I have been able to do some hikes and eating is always pretty healthy for me so no big changes there.
