This week I am down 1.2 pounds (a big amount in my slow climb).

I successfully avoided all the treats and bad food at work (it was nurses week) and I tracked everything.

It showed on the scale.

Unfortunately, life got in the way of working out and I pretty much fell into bed at 8pm exhausted instead.

Not as many workouts as I hoped, but the ones I did do I gave 100% and worked up quite a sweat.

However, I hit 10K or more steps 6 out of 7 days.

Workouts:

Saturday: PIYO Define Lower Body & Upper Body

Sunday: Yard work and dealing with cranky, not feeling well children

Monday: 45 minute walk and 21 DF Cardio Fix

Tuesday: 22 Minute Hard Corps Cardio 2

I only made two new recipes this week.

• BeachBody’s Coconut Lime Riced Cauliflower.  I really wanted to like this one, but I didn’t.  I love lime and coconut, but I just didn’t like the finished dish.  It did get riced cauliflower on my radar though and I will be looking for additional recipes to use it in…suggestions?
• At my weekly Weight Watchers Meeting, people have been recommending the cookbook Everyday Delicious.  I bought it and it is full of easy, “you already have the ingredients in your cabinet” recipes.  I made Pork Chops with Mustard Sauce and it was so good!  I will definitely making many more of the recipes in this book.

At our meeting today, we set up a “6 Weeks Until Summer” Challenge.

Everyone is hoping to lose 5-10 pounds in the next 6 weeks.

Have a good week!
