Week Overview

This week has been a good start overall. There is definitely room for improvement, but then again, that is why I'm keeping this blog! I think that I am off to a good start as far as running goes. I do think that I should vary my cardio workouts so that I don't get sick of running too quickly. Once we are in our apartment, I will be able to go to the fitness room and will be able to use various cardio machines, which will help in not getting bored. I do need to incorporate more weight exercises throughout the week as well. As far as food goes, I need to watch the sweets and the snacks that are mostly carbs. 

Week's Totals:
Desserts: 10
Pasta: 3
Beef: 4
Snacks: 14
Non-water Beverages: 4
Fruit/Vegetables: 16
So...

Goals for Next Week:
1. I will only eat dessert 2 times throughout the week. 
2. I will workout 5 days of the week. 
3. I will incorporate more circuit training in my exercises.
4. I will only eat 1 snack throughout the day that is not a fruit or vegetable. (ie: crackers, tortilla chips, pita chips, etc.)
5. I will start tracking my caloric intake each day. 
6. I will drink no more than 12 oz of a non-water beverage each day. 
7. I will only eat pasta 1 time this week. 
8. I will only eat beef 1 time this week. 
9. I will eat 5 servings of fruits/vegetables daily.

We'll see how this goes, but now that I have started somewhat of a routine and am thinking more about what I am eating, I need to buckle down and follow some rules. So here goes!
