Slim Down Sunday 6
Goal: To change my lifestyle and in doing so, lose weight and increase fitness.
Pounds lost: I don't know - I'm not weighing myself but the tape measure still shows a slight reduction in size.
How it's gone this week: It hasn't been a particularly good week. The main problem is that I haven't been drinking enough through the day when I'm teaching and I haven't yet decided how to solve that little problem. On non-teaching days I've been reasonably good and I haven't strayed so far that I can't get back on track easily. Hopefully!!
Plan for this week: Sort out how to get enough fluids on teaching days (having a drink in the classroom isn't always an option and is something I can only do in 1 out of my 5 schools + I teach through playtimes). Continue to maintain a sensible balance between calories in and calories out. Try to do some exercise/be more active - this will probably have to be restricted to the non-teaching days as I don't have the free time to take walks on teaching days.

Good work, keep at it. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Eileen,
ReplyDeleteIf you're doing playtimes, I bet you are getting a lot of exercise that way. Five schools - wow! You are busy! I tend to drink all day long (good thing I don't drink alcohol :-)), so that aspect has always been easy for me. I just prefer Diet Coke to H2O. Sounds like you're doing great!

just a tip, try to carry a couple of plastic water bottles around with you, and take a few sips or gulps in between lessons - you must, surely, have a few spare seconds?
ReplyDeletewell done, using a tape measure is a far better way of recording success than using scales.
