The New Me Challenge - Week 1



Week 1 was not a full week since I started in the middle of it. But, I did get in some walking in my neighborborhood.

Here's the positives:

1. Walked in my neighborhood

2. Ate smaller portions

3. Snacked less during the day

Here's the not-s0-positives:

1. I found myself gravitating to starchy foods. Even though I only had a baked potato for lunch - it was still a baked potato! I will try to correct this next week.

My goal for next week: to walk Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and to eat more veggies!

  1. I did pretty well on the exercise side of things. Definitely struggling to get the food under better control. SparkPeople is wonderful and very depressing when I enter my food and watch the fat count go up unexpectedly.

    Thanks for hosting this.
    I love your blog title - I can so relate.

  4. Ooh, yum, baked potatoes.

    Sorry, that isn't helping, is it?

    Keep it up. Baby steps, hon, baby steps.
