So how did my 1st week go?
Friday 1/7-First day of Flab to Fab and I’d be lying if I started it off great. I didn’t eat bad or anything like that but I didn’t eat well nor did I exercise. Major Fail! But on an up note I weighed myself and I’m done 3lbs from last week! WOOT
Saturday–Woke up, threw some laundry into the wash and did 20 minutes of Pilates that focused on my Arms and thighs! I also did 100 crunches! I ate in moderation. Still didn’t drink the right amount of water.
Sunday–Ate okay, could have been better of course. Had a can of soda 🙁 Need to drink water. UGH the water drinking is harder than I thought! 50 crunches, 50 reverse crunches, triceps, biceps, 135 Calf raises, 125 Squats, 25 reverse flys, 25 tricep curls, 25 bicep pump {the kind in my Pilates DVDs} All with 3lb weights. I want to be lean not bulky! 52 oz of water which is bad especially if you keep in mind that I only started drinking this between the hours of 8pm and 12am. I need to be drinking more like 88. But I can do it if I start drinking water earlier!
Monday–hmm I had to have done something BUT apparently I didn’t write it down. I know I didn’t do Pilates but I would guess I did some arm work with free weights and squats and calf raises.
Tuesday–3 sets of 15 bicep curls with 10lb weights in each arm, 3 sets of 15 Triceps curls? {<—what are those called?!}, 20 squats. I drank more water today but still not enough 🙁
Wednesday–10 minutes Pilates for arms, 100 cruches, 30 Calf Raises, 25 Squats. Getting better with the water but still not cutting it! I had 72 oz today!
Thursday–Major Fail! I didn’t do much of anything today, didn’t do good with the water and didn’t work out. So lame since tomorrow is weigh in 🙁 and I had a can of soda
FRIDAY:
WEIGH IN!
Last Weeks Weight: 513
Today: 512
Weight Lost: 1lb
Weight Goal for Next Week
509
lbs to lose this week-3lbs
Okay so I know 3lbs is a lot especially when I only lost 1lb this week BUT hear me out. I weighed myself Thursday and from Thursday to Friday I “gained” 1.4lbs Wednesday is the first day that I had A LOT of water, way closer to the amount I’m suppose to be drinking and I don’t think that’s a coincidence. This entire week I’ve been gaining and losing 3lbs which usually tells me that if I’m good I will eventually lose those pounds and start again with another 2-3lbs. So GOAL: 3lbs!
Goals for Next Week:
1) Get on track with drinking my 88z of water!
2) Add crunches, squats, bicep curls etc. throughout the day
3) Write down EVERYTHING that I eat!
This passed week and next week I want to focus on ways that I can add exercise into my daily routine during my non-designated work out times. What do I mean?
Squats in the bathroom while Mason plays in the bathtub
Calf raises while doing the dishes
Crunches in between commercials while watching my favorite TV show
Taking the stairs two at a time
Parking further away at the Grocery Store
Any ideas for how I can incorporate small exercises throughout the day? How did you do this week?
