Fitness Monday

 Finally, a week with four strength training sessions! I'm very pleased, as that's m overall goal. I'm hoping to see some downward movement on the scale soon. 

Weight: 149.5 - down the pound from last week, which makes me even with my lowest weight of the year. I am also finally feeling like I'm getting back into shape, and focusing on building muscle, so I'm hoping this is a sign that things are trending in the right direction & I'll see some actual downward movement on the scale soon. 

Calories: 1,281/day, so definitely about where I should be for weight loss, as a menopausal woman attempting to lose weight. 

Steps: 11,888 - very close to my goal! Should have tracked this earlier in the week a bit closer, so I could have hit my target.

Workouts:

  • One 60 minute elliptical workout
  • Two days without workouts (in office day + a day I had to go to the tire shop 2x for Sam's car)
  • 4 very hard workout classes (combo of cardio & strength training)
Other health related things:
  • Set up an eye doctor appointment, which I'm required to have every year or so to keep on top of an macular changes, due to a medicine I take. 

Goals for the week:

  • Three strength workouts
  • Staying the course with healthy eating & lots of protein
  • Hitting my step goal for the week, in spite of my trip to Boulder for Nick's move in
What about you? How did you do with your health & fitness goals last week? Any wins to share?
