Monday Session

Happy Monday Everyone!  Does anyone else have a hard time falling asleep on Sunday's?  I think I slept 30 minutes last night.  I don't like that.


I made healthy banana things this weekend.  I will post some pictures later, but I am at work and without my camera.  Thank you to Tim over at Fat Boy Thin for giving me a really great recipe!    

Goals

1. Take a picture of myself sweaty from working out every day this week.
Fail.  Mostly because I forgot my camera three days in a row and then when I finally remembered I tried to turn it on and it was dead.  So, guess what?  Back on the list.  I am about accomplishing things and making progress.  No sense in taking it off my list if I didn't do what I set out to do. 
1. Sign up for my first 5k.
Can I just say that I had NO IDEA there were so many races of all lengths in the Twin Cities.  How amazing?  I decided that I am going to sign up for the Challenge Obesity 5k that was recommended to me by Sarah over at the amazing blog Fat Little Legs.  I am very excited and nervous and I know that I really need to kick it into high gear until then.  The race is in April.
 
Newish Goals
 
1. Take a picture of myself sweaty from all of my work outs this week.
So, as I said before this one is making it on here again.  Not much explanation needed.  Not only do I want to have proof of my hard work at the gym, but I need to add some pictures to spice up life.
 
2. Try two new fruits and vegtables.
This is one of my old goals and I am bringing it back because certainly I can eat more than lettuce, apples, bananas and carrots in the fruit and vegetable department.
 
I am going to conclude this post as is, but I will be adding a post later on that is more of a wedding related post.  I know that this is a weight loss blog, but a huge part of my life right now is planning a wedding and getting in shape for a wedding.  I know that many of you have been down this road, so your advice in weight loss and weddings is important to me!  So, I hope you don't mind my occassional wedding post.  If you do, stick around for the next weight loss one! :)

  6. I really need to expand my fruit & veggie intake too. I pretty much just eat apples, bananas, baby carrots, and sometimes grapes. Sad!! I'm a new reader! :)
