Fitness Monday

 The week went pretty much as I expected, with the first half being pretty good & the second half being much higher calories. 

Weight: I didn't weigh in the back half of the week, but my weight has been holding steady & the scale is really trying hard to stay in place. No progress again this week. 

Calories: 1,732/day, thanks to plenty of indulgences in the second half of the week during the mini girls trip at my house. 

Steps: average daily steps was 14,012! Yay for a big hike on Saturday, plus we went for mini walks around the block 3 nights last week. 


Workouts:

  • One combo strength/cardio workout class
  • One treadmill class
  • 2+ hour hike with friends
  • 30 minute elliptical
  • 45 minute walk
  • 30 minute walk around the neighborhood
  • One day without a workout

Overall nutrition: the first half of the week was really good. The back half was filled with more indulgences, treats & alcohol due to entertaining. 

Goals for the week: I want to get in a few more harder core workouts, and improve my nutrition/decrease my calories. Pretty much the basics for the week.

What about you? How did you do with your health & fitness goals for the week?

  1. Wow, you are doing fabulous on your average daily count step! I need to work on getting in more steps each day. I lost like 1/4 of an ounce last week, but I'll take it. LOL

  2. I use the Mayo Clinic website to determine both maintenance and weight loss calories based on my age/height/weight - I laughed when it said 900 calories a day for weight loss. But, darn if it isn't accurate. I stay the same at 1100 calories, drop weight at 900 calories.

    Today I did a seven mile kayak with a GF - it was terrific.

  3. Your step count is awesome. No weight loss here, but maintaining is okay right now.

    God bless.

  4. I skipped walking today in lieu of yardwork and home PT. I might have had some thin Oreos, though. Does that cancel out the yardwork? I hope not!

  5. It's been a bad weekend and start to the week. I won't be surprised if I put a kind back on. It's so hard to not let things get iny way but it's the eating empty calories that's my downfall.
