Crazy Busy Life
I have been neglecting my job duties as a blogger. And unlike last year at this time I don’t really have a good excuse. Just busy like everyone else this time of year.
I have continued to do well on South Beach Diet although I am starting to stray a little as the temptations of the season become more and more of a reality. My current weight is 170.6! Which is great for me although I was really hoping to be 167 before Christmas Eve. The important part is I came really close to my goal and who knows maybe ( I doubt it) it will still happen I mean we do have two days.
Xander will be one on Christmas eve and we are really excited, I would like for Dave to get the swingset up and ready to use in the backyard for his birthday I would like for him to be able to play on it. We also went out and bought him three presents to open; one on his birthday and two Christmas morning.
On Christmas morning we will be going to my grandpa’s house in PA, it will be Xander’s first flight and I am nervous about packing and just the trip not about actual flying. I am also nervous because I have made so much progress in the weight department I don’t want to be totally sabotaged by a trip out of town. My parents are going to so I’m sure if I bring my workout clothes my mom will want to workout with me. I have been trying to formulate a plan for while I am away, knowing that I won’t have access to a large variety of South Beach foods. I think that my best plan would be to be calorie conscious sticking to around 1800 or less a day and not expect to loss but hope to not gain. Which means I should bring along my laptop and log in to track my food every day. I will also try to plan out what I’m going to eat ahead of time as much as possible so I am not surprised and I have a estimate of how many calories things are.
So my health Christmas goals are as follows:
- Have a good time
- Work out at least 30 minutes per day
- Don’t over indulge- 1800 calories per day
- Drink lots of water- Drink little wine
What are you health goals this Holiday Season?
