It has been a minute since I mentioned my renewed commitment to my fitness journey. It has not been easy sticking to it but I am trying. I don’t have a scale so I can’t go by numbers. I wish I had a scale though. I’ll get one eventually but for right now I’m going by the fit of my clothes and how I feel. To be honest, though I have been on and off for the past few weeks and I haven’t really been committed to it but last week I had a pretty good week. A friend of mine knows how much I want to achieve this goal, so she has been motivating me with positive quotes and advising me to go onto sites like Mobile Mob, in the hopes of finding accessories that I can use for my smartwatch. I didn’t really think about this, but this may be the push I need in order to tick this goal off the list. Everything takes time.
Last week I exercised 3 out of 7 days. That is a good one for me because for the past few weeks I averaged about once or twice a week and sometimes none at all. So for me to exercise 3 out of 7 days is a good accomplishment. One day I did a full 30-minute video. Another accomplishment that I’m proud of because usually when I get tired I quit but although I had to take many breaks I forced myself to finish the video. In the next few days, I finished 30 minutes as well. I am feeling good. One thing I did fail was my calorie counting. I didn’t even input my weekend intake because it wouldn’t have been anything I am proud of. I plan on doing it this weekend because it is part of me being truthful with myself. I figure I need to see what I am eating to encourage myself to make the necessary changes or at least watch how much I’m eating.
I am posting my myfitnesspal records from last week. I think I did okay. However, I didn’t enter my food intake for the weekend. I would not be very happy with the results because I know I ate way over my calories this weekend. I will be doing it this weekend though. I feel I need to see what I am eating because it might make me do better than I am doing now. I plan on limiting some of my foods like macaroni. Hopefully next time I update I will be doing even better. I have been known to start and stop. I definitely pray for me cause I want to keep going and not to stop.

Keep up the great work, Katherine! It’s so wonderful that you are taking this time to improve your health. Even exercising 3 of 7 days is a HUGE accomplishment for a busy mom! I’m lucky to squeeze in 1 day, in comparison. Keep up the good work!
