1. How did last week go? Not great. I hurt my knee so I was only able to get in three runs.

2. What are your work out goals for the week? Number? Type? Get my running mileage plus three strength training workouts

3. What are your food goals for the week? Less snacking and eating more actual meals

4. Any non-scale victories? No

Bonus: If you could go back in time and change one thing about your fitness what would it be? I would have started being more active sooner. I was really inactive for about seven years when I stopped swimming in high school till I was 24 and gained a bunch of weight. I wish I would have been consistent with working out because my self-consciousness about my weight caused me to miss out on a lot of things.

1. How did last week go?
We had a pretty successful week nutrition wise following the nutritionist plan. Or at least I did. DH is complaining her plan for him has "too much food" and he's "so full all the time". Boys really suck sometimes.


2. What are your work out goals for the week? Number? Type?
Same old same old. Definitely going to try to just stick to the trainer on saturday so I can do some kids stuff before school restarts. All my runs have to be at 5am now b/c of the heat. It's hard to feel like summer is gone when it's 100 degrees.

3. What are your food goals for the week?
I'm hoping to stick to the nutritionist food plan even more this week. There were some things that she wanted us to get at the store that DH "couldn't find" but I've ordered from the grocery store for curbside pick up today.

4. Any non-scale victories?
PR on the bike in my race. Funny, overall I was faster in this race than last one, but last one I got 2nd place, this time I was 31st. Ha ha. It's all about who shows up sometimes.

Bonus: If you could go back in time and change one thing about your fitness what would it be?
I wish I wouldn't have done some of the weight loss stuff I tried. It meant signing up for expensive plans and then ditching them. A lot of the eating plans were complicated and the rational me could see a mile away that I wasn't really going to do them. But the hopeful me paid and signed up anyway.

Also, sometimes I wish I had started with a written triathlon plan instead of this group. One where people were a little less intense. But the people and the good bits of having a coach is keeping me there.

1. How did last week go?
Not great. Vacation = junky food choices. Plus, I skipped a bunch of training days because I was lazy. Determined to get back on track this week.

2. What are your work out goals for the week? Number? Type?
3 training walks and 2 cross training days are on the schedule this week. Determined to pull all of them off. I have zero reason not to.

3. What are your food goals for the week?
I think I'm going to try to start tracking points again and meal prepping good lunches and snacks for myself at work. I don't always stick to my points perfectly, but I'm at least more conscious of binge eating junk food at night that way.

4. Any non-scale victories?
pass this week.

Bonus: If you could go back in time and change one thing about your fitness what would it be?
I'd have kept up with my college level exercising. I used to be a dancer and do yoga and Zumba and all kinds of fun stuff. I wish I hadn't stopped, because now it feels impossible to fit it back into my schedule.

1. Eh lets not talk about last week. It was not good.

2. I ran this morning and felt good so that motivation should help me through the week. Next week I am picking up shred again, but I have too much in the evening right now to work out twice a day.

I want to run MWF at a min and maybe throw in one more for fun.

3. Not eat like crazy. I have to restock my fridge so it shouldn't be too bad.

4. Run today was much easier than I expected. Made me feel better

Bonus: I wish I had started my workouts much sooner after having my kid than I did. If I could do anything I would have maintained a routine during pregnancy and kept up with them as soon as I was able after having him.

1. How did last week go? Not too bad. I did body pump classes and walked in the park on another day. My calorie intake was ok.


2. What are your work out goals for the week? Number? Type? It is going to be a busy week, so I don't think I'll be able to get to my body pump classes. So now I am just looking at getting in some kind of physical activity (prob. walking) 3 times this week. I mowed the lawn yesterday for 1.5 hours, so that counts as one of my workouts. Only 2 more to go this week!


3. What are your food goals for the week? Keep logging my calories. Try to go easy on the ice cream in the evenings.


4. Any non-scale victories? My mom took me out clothes shopping this past weekend and I found some clothes that I liked. It feels good to be in some flattering outfits again.


Bonus: If you could go back in time and change one thing about your fitness what would it be? Keeping up with workouts during my last pregnancy. I gained so much weight and I had gestational diabetes. I would probably feel so much better now and had a better pregnancy if I was a little more active.

1. How did last week go?

Horrible but we came home from vacation mid-week and had no groceries so that was to be expected.

2. What are your work out goals for the week? Number? Type?

3 days. Boot camp class at the gym on Wednesday and run at home Thurs and Fri.

3. What are your food goals for the week?

I just started Whole 30 today so my goal is to stick to the plan

4. Any non-scale victories?

None. I'm victory-less

Bonus: If you could go back in time and change one thing about your fitness what would it be?

I wouldn't have run a half marathon this last spring. I had a horrible race and it set me back mentally with working out.

1. Last week I got in 4 CF workouts and one yoga practice. I wanted a shred session, too, but that didn't pan out. But I will give myself extra credit for fitting in a family "jog."

2. 3 CF, 2 shreds, 1 walk/run

3. Limit ice cream intake. It is not a necessary food group.

4. I did my first double-stroller jog! To put things in perspective, I pushed my 28 pound toddler and 15 pound infant in an in-line double stroller (not a jogger). It was hot, and i was sweating and panting. My husband was leisurely walking next to me, drinking a beer. Everyone was happy.

Bonus: I wish i could slap the shit out of my teenage/twenties self for smoking cigs. I quit 4 years ago and still feel like my lungs are exploding when i work out.
