Week 3
February 25, 2014
Successes
·
2 more pounds
down for a grand total of 10.8 pounds so far!
·
I can wear my
work pants that are size smaller than when I started this journey!
Difficulties
·
As I see the
scale’s numbers going down (albeit just a little so far) I sometimes think to
myself, “I’m losing weight…of course I can have a bowl of ice cream or some
Girl Scout cookies.” WHAT?? That’s part of what got me here to begin with.
·
In Train Your
Brain this week we talked about unfairness of dieting. Thinking that even
though I have lost some weight, but still can’t have ice cream is UNFAIR.
Marty’s solution to that is that we need to “Remember our Advantages”. There
are so many more advantages to eating healthy than not. To remember this great
advice, I’m going to place a sticky note with that saying in a few “special”
places (inside the freezer door, inside the refrigerator door and inside the
cupboard door). That will be a good reminder every time I go to one of those
places and open it looking for something to eat.
Wednesday Workout
·
I work out
with a group of teachers after school on Wednesdays and Fridays. I want to
share this with those of you who work out on your own for something different
that you may not have done before.
·
Here’s one of
the workouts we did this week:
·
5 rounds
o 10 push-ups
o 25 tuck jumps
o 10 pull ups
o 25 air squats
o 30 second jump rope
o 60 second plank
o 20 box jumps
o
50 meter sprint
Ponder this…

That quote is what Square One truly is. I
can’t get over how different this place is than any other gym I’ve been at
before. On a daily basis, we cheer each other on, clap for each other’s
successes, and support one another not only in the workouts but in reaching
goals too. I love this place!!
