Body – I notice my strength, stamina, and overall physical appearance are continuing to improve! I have already gotten comments from friends on how different I look! Something’s going right lol! But I also notice that some areas are shrinking more than others and that kind of frustrates me! I have a feeling that it is due to my nutrition, so that will be outlined as my goal further below.
 
Learning: I continue to learn the importance of nutrition. Unfortunately, I have been slacking in this department for the past 2 weeks. Now before you grimace at me (hahaha) it hasn’t been that bad. Not necessarily junk food, but more like portion control and missing meals =( Not trying to make excuses but sometimes at work when things start to pick up, I’m either stuck in a meeting far longer than planned or with a student for more than I planned. So because of this I haven’t been having the healthiest snacks (i.e. pretzels, candy) because I am so hungry by the time I get out my situation that I’d eat my stapler if I could lol. I then notice that this affects me for the rest of the day (what I eat, how I feel, etc). I also haven’t been consistent with grocery shopping meaning I have had to eat out more often. So not only has my body taken a hit, but my wallet as well.
 
Observation: I’ve noticed that my lack of time management the past 2 weeks has been detrimental to my nutrition. I have been struggling with food for the past 2 weeks and it is also dampering my mood. However, my exercise has not been affected and I continue to grow in this area. I just want a balance between the two because I know this will be pertinent to overall success!
 
Goals: My goal is to get back on track with nutrition and make time to get this intact. I will also get back to using my fitness pal tracker since I haven’t used it in 2 weeks!
 
Setting next weeks goals: For now…I am going to continue to focus on nutrition, talking more with my coach, and making more time for food planning.
