Welcome to Week 1 of Fitness Friday!
Trista from Anderson's Angels and I are teaming up to encourage each other in becoming healthier and we are hoping you will join us!
Every Friday, Trista and I are going to post an update which will include things like diet changes, weight loss, inches lost and activity goals along with the failures or achievements of our past week. I plan on posting a photo so that I can see my progress. Hopefully for me, this means losing enough weight to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes… and hopefully a tiny bit more.
We took a break for the holidays and I gained weight (of course) but here we are to get a fresh start with the new year ahead of us!
JOIN US!
Each Fitness Friday post will include a linky. Anyone who wants to get healthy with us can write a post and link up, that way we can all stop by your blog and show you some love and encouragement. If you are not a blogger, we would love for you to post these things in our comment section below our post and we will still show you the same love and encouragement!

I will try my best to post on Thursday nights and the linky will be open for the whole week.
Week 2
Well, I have completed my very first week of the year... and I did not do as good as I wanted... but I still did okay!
- Current Weight: 183 lbs. I lost 4 lbs. since week.
- Activity Performed during the week, accomplishments or failures: I only did crunches this week. We had a really busy week, so I couldn't get out to work out.
- Diet Changes, accomplishments or failures: I did pretty good this week. I cut down to only 1 pop most days of this past week. And for 2 days I did not drink any! YAY ME! I did drink more water this week so I am happy about this.
- Goals for the following week:
- Weight – I am 183 lbs. and for next week I'd like to be down to 180. The first week or two I lose fast because the first 10-ish pounds is usually water weight and easy to take off. After next week - it's going to get harder!
- Activity – I would like to walk or run for 30 min. and do some kind of ab workout at least 5 days a week. I think I will concentrate on that for the next week. Maybe the following week I will add more to my routine.
- Diet
– For this coming week I would like to continue the same thought process. Less pop, more water and real food. Oh and I forgot to mention, I do not want to eat past 7 pm.
Before Photo (before I gained pregnancy weight):

This photo above is my inspiration. I want to get back down to 160 like I was in this photo! (Or less).
Please join us, the more we have participating, the easier it will be to keep going and reach our goals! Be sure to visit as many as you can in the linky… and encourage one another.

ReplyDeleteIt is wonderful to have a goal. My problem was always setting unrealistic goals. Yours seems attainable. Good luck!
