Week Six Results

So I have realized no matter how much water I drink or healthy food I eat, if I don't exercise this weight is not going to come off. I went up this week and I'm a little disappointed in myself for not trying harder. But at the same time I feel that since I have started 6 weeks ago I have made great strides in learning about my body and becoming more healthy.

I was chatting with a family friend yesterday and she helped me understand that as long as I am doing this for me and enjoying it then that is all that matters. It was also mentioned that you could measure portions by handful, if it is bigger then your hand it is probably to big of a portion. Now of course not everything should be measured in that way but the delicious unhealthy food that you should not over consume could be measured in this way. It is a way to keep you thinking about portion control, something I struggle with most of the time.

Now on to week seven, I think I'm going to set goals at the beginning of the week and work on achieving them. So this week my goal is to drink at least 64oz of water a day and exercise 5 times in the next 7 days. What is your weekly goal and how do you accomplish it?

Have a great Monday! :)
