Back to life, back to reality...

I confess I've fallen off track the past few weeks in the rush and mayhem of big events, a bit of vacation time and power outages.

I have not tracked anything I've eaten or any of my exercise. And more importantly (for me) I've become really lazy about my food planning and prep - which means I've been eating irregularly and with a fuckit-i'm-starving-attitude. I know that when I am thoughtful and organized I eat more consistently and make much much better choices.

And I know that if I don't get myself back on track now, I will use the flurry of the holidays as an excuse to be less vigilant.

So for the next three weeks these are my goals:

*Use WW online to track what I am eating on a daily basis.

*Be more mindful in my grocery shopping so that I have everything I need to prepare my breakfast and lunches for the next day.

*Plan a few dinners for the week to come and make it easy for myself to execute them. (ie. make a big salad that can stretch a few days, grill up a pack of chicken breasts, make soup, etc.)

*Re-run week 8 of the C25k to get myself back on track. And get through week 9 (and the end of the program).

*Make it to 2 to 3 pilates, stability ball or core strengthening classes a week.

*Take my 32oz water bottle to work with me every day (as religiously as I take my thermos full of coffee)
