Weekend and Hot 100 Update

I feel like I’ve been MIA from blogland as I just didn’t have time on the long weekend to read any blogs, never mind update my own. I was busy all three days. I cleaned, I worked out, I cleaned, I cooked, I cleaned, I wore myself out, (did I mention I cleaned?).

Saturday afternoon, my daughter and I went to the mall and did some shopping. I bought some new clothes for work, a new pair of jeans that actually fit and don’t have baggy bottom syndrome going on, and two new pairs of shoes. I’m tired of wearing running shoes all the time because my feet are so sensitive to heels so I bought two nice comfortable work happy shoes. Then we went to see the Blue Man Group. We were in the fourth row from the stage – it was great. Here is a picture I took with my little camera.



I had seen them last September in Las Vegas but my daughter never had and she thoroughly enjoyed the entire show. It was a very nice mother/daughter date.

Then Sunday, I did a repeat of Saturday morning, clean, workout, clean, cook, clean…. You know… House isn’t that messy or dirty but I was cleaning & cooking as I went along. I wanted to have almost everything pre-done so that I could visit with my family for once.

Ended up having 15 people for dinner and the meal was perfect. Everyone enjoyed it and I finally relaxed at around 9:00 p.m. last night. Tonight I’ll work on the leftovers etc.

I did not sleep well Sunday night, nor last night. I have my suspicions as to why so tonight I need to make some changes. But other than that, I’ve been surprisingly feeling really good. I am only taking a few supplements right now and a few new ones so that I can cleanse my liver and kidney. They seem to be working because I’m actually feeling better, less tired and a bit more energy. I can’t imagine how I’ll feel after I’m completely clean (not possible but I can hope) of all crap out of my system.
=============================================
Week 3 Hot 100 Long Term Goal Update:

1. Drink plenty of water - completed
2. Take all my supplements - completed
3. Exercise at least 30 minutes a day - completed one way or another.
4. Increase my strength training to 3 x a week Did not do any strength training as per my holistic nutrionist and other folks so I think I need to replace this or I will fail it every week.
5. Lose 24lbs by end of the year - down 4.8 lbs since 09/15 (I gained 1.4 lbs last week L )

Week 3 – Last week’s goal Update:
1.    Positive Attitude every day – I think I did pretty good in keeping my head in the right place
2. Walk 4 x this week (not stating from home to work as it has already started snowing here and I just don't have the shoes for long outdoor walks just yet (will be going shopping soon for boots). - Completed
3. Make the right choice when selecting what goes in my mouth at least 6 out of 7 days. – I didn’t do as good as I wanted to here and need to improve it. I’m hoping with the new plan, things will be better as I have a real goal in mind for the result of this (other than weight loss).
4. Journal everything that goes in my mouth – I did good here except the weekend.

==============================================

Week 4 - This week’s goals (not repeating anything I have in the Hot 100 Goals)
1.    Positive Attitude every day (I have a couple of affirmations I am going to repeat daily – 1. I am at my perfect weight at this time, and 2. I release and eliminate toxins from my body.)
2.    Walk 6 x this week
3.    Do a Turbo Jam session 3x
4. Closely follow my nutrition guide for liver cleanse.
5. Journal all changes that I experience as it will help me when I feel like straying from the program.


Ok, back to reading more blogs… I mean back to work I go…. J

Hope everyone has a fantastic day and make good choices.

  1. Great work on the goals Sandra. It does sound like you should consider replacing the strength goal.

    Hopefully things will slow down a bit for you this week.

  2. I'm struggling with blogland as well and trying to keep up. How fun that you got to go shopping; all of my pants have the baggy-bottom syndrome and need to be replaced. Hopefully soon. :)

  3. Steve, I changed it to "Do not eat after 7:00 p.m. This is a real challenge for me somedays so it will be interesting how I do with it.
    I'm going to have to add it to my weekly mindset.....
