I'd like to track but

What can stop you in your tracks...not knowing where to find points values
Track the damn food anyway

Tracking creates awareness AND AWARENESS IS EMPOWERING

TRACKING--It works dammit

People tend to under estimate what they eat

It helps me realize that it is ok NOT to be perfect

It fosters a sense of accountability and control

It takes 21-28 days to make tracking (or anything else) a habit

Victim--stop being one dammit!

Victims justify themselves. Victims complain. That is the worst thing you can do for your health and your wealth.

Victims blame others. They blame everyone except themselves
TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOURSELF, DAMN IT!

A goal is:

A goal is created three times.
First, as a mental picture. Second, when it is written down to add clarity and dimension.
Third, when you take action toward achievement.
Easy as 1-2-3!

SMART GOAL

It has to be
Specific
Measurable
Achievable/Attainable
Relevant/Realistic
Trackable

Great quote

I got this from a Jason Mraz tweet:

to Commit to your New Years' resolutions: "Faith is taking the first step when you don't see the whole staircase" - Martin Luther King

Getting Started Can Be A Bitch

Sometimes the hardest thing about exercising is getting started. It can be a pain in the ass to get the motivation up to EVEN GET STARTED, but once you get moving and the workout is done you feel so much better. That's a thought that I have to
hold on to!

Health Goals for the first quarter of 2010

I wrote this last night, but forgot to save it

Goal : Lose 5% of my weight by beginning of March. I want to lose at least 10% of my weight before attempting another IUI. However, I will start at 5% and go from there
Why? I want to be healthy and fit. I am freaking tired of living out of shape. I want to be healthy enough to get pregnant and have a healthy STICKY pregnancy and birth. Main reason why is because:
I OWE IT TO MYSELF AND I AM SO FREAKIN’ WORTH IT!

I will do this by:
· Journaling food. I bite it, I write it
· Going to WW meetings
· Positive Self Talk. I WILL NOT let my depression bouts get in my way!
· Using other sources like SparkPeople, FIRM website, SHAPE message boards, Weight Watchers, etc
· Trying new recipes
· Increasing vegetables and fruits
· Exercise at least 150 minutes a week (3-4 days). I will also do 1 yoga class per week. Log my workouts
· Meditation
· Journaling feelings and revisiting reasons on why I want to lose the weight
· Taking vitamins and drinking water

What I'm Reading

I bought this as a bday gift to myself. Glad it had a coupon--made it cheaper!

Goal for week met

Body photos were taken. Will post later (maybe not on the blog)

Goal for the week (Sunday-Saturday) is to do at least 150 minutes of exercise. As of today, I am at 170 minutes and 48 seconds which is good! (this week, my week started on Monday, which was my bday). Goal met! Tomorrow is going to be a very short workout (probably a floor leg workout). I'm doing good so far and I'm impressed with myself
