#FitReaders: Weekly Check-in July 8

 

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





 

It was a hot week and so it was hard to get motivated to do much…but I did end up doing a 5K outside in the heat in the afternoon – not sure what I was thinking when I decided to do that, but I sure was a hot mess after finishing that! I have a feeling I’m going to be doing a lot of my walks either at the gym or the mall for the foreseeable future!!!



Update on July goals:

  • 10K steps M-F, at least 7,500 steps on the weekend – 4/5  & 2/2
  • Strength-training exercises 3x a week – Done!
  • 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 is a work in progress, but I did pretty well this week!

    Way to go on your goals! I need to do more upper body strength training, I keep slacking.

    Great job! And you've already gotten in 2 5k's! Summer seems to be harder for me to get goals and eat healthy. We can do it!
