- My biggest "a-ha" moment: Seeing the benefit (e.g. net calories) of logging my exercise to My Fitness Pal - love that!!
- My biggest struggle: Getting on that treadmill after a long day's work! I may try to do the treadmill in the mornings instead. Meal planning was also a struggle.
- My biggest success: Tracking everything on My Fitness Pal (I used to hand write my entries and it was a real drag! So, having an app on my phone makes it SO easy.)
Something I haven't shared before is that about 6 years ago I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, and I really need to do a much better job of testing my blood sugar on a routine/daily basis. So, I'm adding this to my goals for Week #3. Here's my plan:
- Walk 30-60 minutes on the treadmill at least 4 days this week
- Do a 3-mile walk around my neighborhood community (Saturday or Sunday)
- Plan the next day's meals and snacks each evening before bed
- Do not exceed daily caloric intake of 1200
- Drink 8 glasses of water daily
- Track food and exercise on MyFitnessPal daily
- Monitor my blood sugar on a daily basis
Congratulations on your excellent loss:) Good luck with your goals for this week!
