Tomorrow starts my first full week back on my fitness plan. I have a two-point plan of attack:
1. Fitness: Monday I am back with my trainer and workout buddy. I have really missed the encouragement and accountability that I get from Melissa and Denise. Since I don't meet with them until the evening I plan to hit the gym mid-day and at least get a mile in on the treadmill. Tuesday and Thursday I am planning to attend Group Power at my gym. It's a group weight lifting class. I have never tried the class before, but I am kinda looking forward to it. Wednesday and Friday I will be on the treadmill as I try to increase my time to at least an hour or 3 miles, whichever comes first. If there is nice weather on Saturday I will try to get on the Swamp Rabbit trail for a nice long walk. Sunday is my day of rest.
2. Diet: Remembering my motto, "Baby Steps", I am planning on a few changes to my diet this week without a radical change. Number one is no sugar. This will mostly be snacks and desserts. I successfully cut those out last time and I'm sure I can do it again. I am going to the grocery store in the morning to stock up on fresh fruit. A pear or sweet apple usually helps me curb the craving I get for sugar. The second change will be to add a serving of vegetables to each meal. Third and last for this week is to eat a better breakfast each morning. I need to switch back to 2% milk with my cereal and watch the sugar content of my cereal.
Well, that's my plan for now. One week at a time, one day at a time, one step at a time. Wish me luck!!
