I know the year technically started on January 1st. But, let's be honest we all need at least a week to resume our regularly scheduled lives before we can really go full throttle on our goals. I started this week an effective, organized, and productive machine. It feels awesome! I just hope I can keep it up.
Besides the blog goals, I shared with you last week I have some personal goals too. Over a year ago I decided it was time to lose a few pounds and get my eating straight. Like a lunatic, my husband and I joined a CrossFit gym. After a year of doing CrossFit, I lost weight, gained muscle, lost fat, and got stronger and healthier. It has now been 1 year and 5 months of doing CrossFit. But over the last few months, I got a little lax with my eating...cough,cough...holidays. Thankfully, I didn't do any real damage to my progress, I plateaued. This year the goal is to get my eating back on track and lose those last 20 lbs.
This week so far has been great. The secret for me is planning and prepping ahead. On Sundays I prep food for lunch and dinner, I even wrote a post about it, and plan what I will eat everything before I got to bed. I am going to bed on time, getting up early, eating breakfast, hitting my macros, and getting work done. My nemesis tends to be a change in my schedule. I am a creature of habit and the moment it gets disturbed I go off track. I declare that I will find a way to stay on track regardless of the obstacles life puts in the way.
I will be at a blogger retreat this early next week. There is to hoping I can stay on track and resist temptation. I just tell myself enjoy yourself, don't deprive yourself, and control yourself. Especially around chips and queso. ;D
