Body after Baby - week 3


MamaNotes

Week 3 is underway. I have not weighed myself recently but am snacking healthier which has been my main goal for the past couple of weeks. I use to obsess over my weight and weigh myself daily, I hear this is not healthy for me. Is that true? I have even gone so far as say I might have had a slight weight disorder with how obsessed I was (am still fighting against). Not that I ever was super thin, my sister and I always referred to ourselves as "healthy," now how ever I am above healthy. To help me battle my obsession I have asked my husband to hide the scale except for on Fridays, so this Friday I will weigh myself after not doing so for a week. I will let you all know how it goes.

I walked/ran for a total of 14 points last week. I am also happy to report my asthma seems to be better which should allow me to run more frequently. I volunteered for a run event this past weekend and it sort of inspired me to run more so I again can race (at least participate in fun runs).

Week 3 diet goal: still working on eating fewer sweets.
Week 3 exercise goal: RUN!!!!!

Mama notes is encouraging us to eat healthier this week, for each meal that contains at least two different types of food groups I earn 1 point. I am off to a great start (and am not too worried about accumulating points, we typically eat healthy meals) as we had chicken, salad, and fruit for dinner. Point 1 earned :)

  1. I'm sure you'll do great this week. I have a bad habit of only eating one thing at a time. Supper is the only "meal" that I eat.

  2. I know what you mean about the scale. I too have issues with the scale.

    Way to go on the eating healthy!

  4. I have had to put the scale away at times as well. So am I the other healthy sister? :) Guessing you aren't talking about the older one. :)
