#FitReaders: July 15

 

#FitReaders is hosted by Geeky Bloggers Book Blog  and That’s What I’m Talking About

 

It was another hot week…and so hard to stay motivated. On top of that, my headaches are back – but this time, are due to tight muscles in my shoulders and neck. I have to set up an evaluation with a physical therapist and in the meantime, I have muscle relaxers and need to use heat/ice when it bothers me. So, I just need to use caution when working out so as to not injure it more.

Update on July goals:

• 10K steps M-F, at least 7,500 steps on the weekend – 5/5  & 2/2
• Strength-training exercises 3x a week – Had to put this on hold this week.
• Yoga 2-3 times a week – at least 15 minutes – Done!
• Eat
  mindfully – continue to drink a minimum of 64 oz of water, limit
  caffeine intake, up intake of fruits and veggies, up intake of protein
  at each meal, limit intake of sugar. – This week was ok…lunch tends to be where I struggle.
