Weekly Goal Update #1

Here it as, as promised.

My 2 month goals:

1) No more nail biting
This is going better than I expected. I have a few nails that are getting pretty long, but my cuticles are gross! Nail biting is an addiction! I have 3 fingers with gross bloody cuticles that hurt! I am really trying, really. I hope next week goes better.

2) 30 day shred twice a week
Big fat fail. I didn't do it once. No excuses, just didn't do it. I expect this will be an easier goal once the SacFit season is over because I will no longer have midweeks.

3) Another type of workout twice a week
Success! I did Tuesday at the gym, my Thursday midweek and the Saturday SacFit workout. If only one of these could replace a 30DS...

4) Food journaling every day
Ummmmm...most days? Weekends kill me. I only gained .2lbs on my weekly WI, but it wasn't a loss. I am going to try again this week.

5) Water, water, water!
Check, check and check! I discovered I had some cold brew tea bags in my cupboard and they make it so easy to drink my water without it being boring water. I have been drinking at least 2 whole camelback bottles a day, sometimes 3, and even more on workout days.

I would say for week 1 I am doing pretty well. I have some things I need to work on obviously, but I am not doing terribly. I wish my living room was bigger so the 30DS was easier to do!

Speaking of that, Matt talked to the realtor today and we got started on his website searching for houses. There were 150 from our search and we whittled it down to 43. Now we just have to go do some drive-bys and then call him to look at the ones we like. I am so ready for a house!!!

Friday WI :D and other things too...

Drum roll please...I weighed myself this morning and the scale said...169.8lbs! That is a 0.8lb loss from last week and it officially puts me out of the 170's! I cannot remember the last time I was below the 170's, but probably in elementary school. I was always a really big girl; tall and chubby. I was beyond excited this morning when I saw that 6 in the 10's place! Now I only have 9.8lbs left until my goal of 160lbs! That is less than 10lbs left to lose which makes my goal seem even more do-able. I know I can do it and I will do it!

On Monday I am going to create a post about things I plan on doing and goals I want to reach between now and my wedding (2 months from Monday). The post will be a way for me to be held accountable and be reminded of my goals everyday. If my followers, all 6 of you, could keep me honest about my goals I would appreciate it very much!

Tomorrow is my last long run with SacFit this season before the Parkway Half Marathon on May 1st. I am planning on going out with the magentas again because my IT band is still giving me problems, but they are still doing 12 miles which is nothing to shake a stick at! I am nervous, but excited to see how I do in this race rehearsal! I will post details tomorrow after my run!

One more thing before I sign off...Matt and I have been thinking about looking for a house to buy. I talked to my mom and she gave me the number to the loan lady at her bank. I sent her some paperwork, talked to her on the phone a few times and she called me today and told me that I am pre-approved for up to $120,000! This means that Matt and I can start seriously searching for a house because we have a letter that states we are pre-approved! I am so excited about this! I am ready to start paying for something that I own!
