Another Week Down

Living Well Wednesday Living Well Wednesday   Hello 2012!

Thanks for joining me for Living Well Wednesday hosted by Natalie from http://onebusywahm.com/. Each week we get together to talk about our highs and lows of the week. Come link up with us and join the fun!

About my week…

I feel like this week has went by so slow. I keep thinking it should be Friday. Two more days! Really?

The weekend was decent. I mostly relaxed and planned for the upcoming week.

Monday was an okay day.  I hung around the house with mom and we caught up with one another.

Yesterday I did the weekly home blessing while the bf took down the rest of the Christmas decorations. (Yes, I know it’s the middle of January.) This was supposed to be done Monday but we had company that messed up my whole routine. Later, I came home and finished up blessing my own home with my mom.

Today I got up pretty early. I watched Joyce Meyer and then I read in my book for a while. Later I did some Pilates and tracked my progress with SparkPeople.

All in all it’s been a pretty decent week.

Progress on my goals…

I’ve been smoke-free for a week and a half now. It gets easier with each passing day but it’s still hard. The weird part is that I really, really crave a cigarette but I really don’t have the desire to smoke one. I know that sounds strange but it’s hard to explain.

I figured when I quit smoking I would eat everything in sight and gain a bazillion pounds. Thankfully I’ve been able to control that. I update my nutrition tracker throughout the day. I don’t always stay within my ranges but right now I want to focus on not smoking. I’m just tracking to get in the habit of it and to see the data on what I’m eating. My next little goal will be to drink at least 8 oz. of water every day.

I’ve also been tracking my fitness. I haven’t done a whole lot but I try to do something everyday. I’ve lost 2 pounds since last week so I’m pretty excited about that. Every little bit helps. My next little goal is to do cardio at least 3 times per week.

I haven’t done a whole lot with my business goals this week. (I know I’m awful!) I just can’t seem to get with it. I feel like I’m in a rut. Hopefully I can get out of this mess soon.

Well that was my week. How has yours been?

    Congratulations on stopping smoking. I’m going wine-free, and I’m finding that hard, lol.
    I’m not as disciplined as tracking my food intake. Kudos to you!

    Glad to see you are a Fly Lady fan also :)

      Hi Natalie,

      Thanks! I’m not that good at tracking mine either but I try to do it at least once a day. Otherwise, I’ll write it down and enter it later. I’m just trying to get in the habit of doing it right now.

      The FlyLady rocks!

    Hi Ashley!
    Don’t feel bad with the Christmas decorations because we just got as of yesterday the last bit organized back in the basement! Good for you with quitting smoking – I am trying to cut down drastically. It is very hard.
