Happy National Donut Day! Of course, just because it's such a special holiday doesn't mean I plan to indulge... Just going food shopping =D

This week went pretty well. I didn't struggle to much, and I went to the gym (Wednesday...)

I have two goals that I plan to follow for the next two weeks: 1) Go to bed by 11pm and wake up at 7am. I really wish I was a morning person, and I think I can train my body to get into that sleep schedule. I'll need to in the real world, anyhow! 2) Exercise daily. Now, I know that people say you have to be specific when you set a goal, otherwise - how can you tell if you've really met it? So, I plan to exercise for at least 30 minutes a day, five days a week, for a total of 10 days out of the next 14. I will do this by working with Tyler on Tuesday and Thursdays, and by going to the gym after work during the week. If I skip the gym, I will do a workout video, Wii Fit, or run stairs at home. Specific enough?

Next week, I think it will be easy enough to hit my -0.8lb mark. I also can't wait until I lose 6.8lbs (maybe in two weeks?) because I'll not only be within 100 lbs of my goal, but also at a weight I haven't seen since 11th grade. Wooot!!

As for food, I am planning out my grocery list now. I am pumped to go shopping for produce, but I know I have to limit what I buy. I want to get only necessities, and make sure nothing will go bad. I thought that, perhaps if I planned my meals (not my snacks, I need some variability day-to-day) for the next two weeks, made my shopping list around that, and then found coupons online - I might be good to go. The biggest problem I find with coupons is that I want to buy fresh produce! Not all processed foods... Sigh.

Until next time - thanks for reading!
