The Blonde Diaries

I thought I’d give a mid-week update on my diet/lifestyle change. So far I have done really well I think. I’m still adjusting to using all my points and how to order when eating out. Right now we are right in the middle of the second quarter financial statement filing period which means 9-8 workdays and ordering in one meal a day. It has been a tad challenging but I am proud of my progress. I am no longer snacking all day at my desk or sneaking candy from the client candy jar. Instead I am sticking to what is in my lunch box and only bringing what I think I might need to eat during the day to work. My water intake, fruit/veggie intake, and milk intake is on par with where it should be and I am even managing to take my multivitamin each day. I know it’s only been 3 days but heck, I’m thrilled over this progress. I am finally showing willpower and wanting to change for myself. Finally, I already met my weekly goal of running 3 miles. I pushed myself last night and did 2 miles on the treadmill. I wasn’t setting out to go that long but I wanted to see how far I could push myself and I was happily surprised with how well it went. I think I’m going to continue this short runs majority of the week and one longer session.

Well that is all for this check in. Thanks for listening to me and encouraging me to keep going.
