Weigh In #4

Week 4 and I am happy to report that I lost 1 pound. Although not the whole amount that I gained last week, but still a loss! It could have been more, but this was not the perfect week I had hoped for. Life is crazy right now. Remember my calendar? Remember how tired I was here? It hasn't stopped. I am going from one thing to another. The second one major thing is over, I have to switch gears and start getting ready for the next. This week was Owen's preschool graduation ceremony, which I helped out with, Olivia's dance recital and today a Girl Scout campout. As soon as I get home from the campout, I need to switch gears and get us ready to leave on vacation. The Litchers are heading to NYC and we are excited!!

Ok, back to the weekly weigh in, and of course, the Good the Bad and the Ugly!

The Good...

• I met my steps goal Tuesday through Friday!
  
   
• I ate clean for most of my meals this week. I would love to say all, but the end of the week got so crazy and I wasn't prepared enough with my meals.
• I got up and did a morning walk 2 days this week. Slowly getting back on track!

The Bad and the Ugly...

• I didn't get my steps in Saturday through Monday. Check out Saturday, oh how I wish I had seen this before going to bed...12 steps, 12 steps. If I had seen that, you know I would have gotten out of bed to walk a minute...seriously, I was so mad when I saw this the next day!
  
• I had ice cream for dinner on Thursday night after Olivia's dress rehearsal. It seemed like a good idea...it wasn't! That is called being unprepared for dinner, running to rehearsal, leaving tired and hungry and deciding that Dairy Queen is the only option.
• Still staying up too late and I don't see that stopping anytime soon, while we stay crazy. Maybe after school ends, or maybe after the birthday parties, or after our vacation to camp. Oh, maybe in August things will settle down?? Maybe? Please??

So next week, my plan is to eat clean for as many meals as possible for the few days we are home and to not go super crazy in New York, I figure the amount of walking we will do will counteract the yummy food we are bound to eat...right?? Next week we will have some guest posters and I will post the clean eating shopping list and daily menus. So after our trip I can detox with the Clean Eating Challenge.

Enjoy the beautiful weekend! Get in those steps! See you next week!
