Hot and Healthy

This was another week of not keeping up with the work-out schedule. I have just been really lazy this past
week for some unknown reason. I probably did about 30 minutes of extra cardio. I also didn't do any of the pilates.
However I did limit my fast food eating. I was getting carried away with this. I also have been good with drinking water.
This weeks goals are 3 days of each 3 pilates exercises, and 170 minutes of cardio.

I did much better this week. The goals were to do 170 minutes of cardio, and 3 days of the pilates hundred. I did 150 minutes minutes of cardio (better than nothing) and the 3 days of the pilated hundred. I am very proud of myself for sticking with it this long. I have a little section to the left that I have been updating to show how I have been doing with this weeks goals.

We bumped up the cardio goal last week to 170 minutes...did you meet it? Exceed it? Coulda done better?
I did not meet the 170 minutes. But I did do 150. I think that is good for a start. I know I could have done better. I swear there just isn't enough time in the day.

How about the eating? Snacking less? Or "snacking smart"?
Yah that is a whole nother story. There is still quite a bit of halloween candy bars laying around the house. I am doing better at snacking at work. I am doing smart snacking.

How's the water consumption going?
I am doing pretty good with that. Usually all I drink is water. Now yesterday on the other hand I had a Pumpkin Spice Cappicino and didn't drink as much water.

Have you been trying Keely's recommended Pilates exercises?
I love pilates so I am doing this.

Yah this past week did not go anything like planned. I did not commit to the challenge what so ever. The challenge was to do a half an hour of cardio for 5 days. I didn't even do one day of cardio. It started off I didn't know what to do for cardio, with it being cold outside that limits a lot, I don't have any exercise videos's (they are packed away), then I had my ER visit. So this week is a fresh start. I got an exercise video from the library. I am going to give it a try today.
 
This weeks challenge- do atleast 170 minutes of cardio this week and try the pilates hundred three times this week.

- I can't keep thinking I will lose weight after I have a baby, cause who knows when the baby is going to happen.
- I want to feel better about myself.
- I want to look better for my husband.
- I would like to fit in my pants better.
