Week 9 resolution recap

3/7/2010

3 Comments

 
Hmm... Did not do so hot with this week's resolutions.

And now, onto my week 9 resolutions.
  • Get in two runs this week (besides today's race).
    Hmmm, I don't even remember what kind of workouts I did this week. I did a run/walk outside at some point during the week, and then did a 16 mile run today. I was hungover when I did the 16 miler. Let's call it even.
  • Stick to my meal plan.
    HAHAHAHAHAHA. I had three cheat days. And that's not counting today as a cheat day, because I ran 16 miles. When I run more than ten miles, I can eat what I want *Cartman voice*! So yeah. I suck at sticking to my meal plan.
Hmm... it's not looking good. I've noticed I get really panicky and anxious about only having one cheat day per week. And then I go overboard. And then I have random little treats but don't call them cheat days. So let's tinker with my meal plan, shall we?

Week 10 resolutions:
  • 1 cheat item, 3x per week.
    It's going to be tough, but maybe I won't feel so caught up with cheat days? A cheat item will be something like a cookie, a glass of wine, or some chips or something. Yes, that's cheating fairly often, but in terms of total cheat calories, it probably won't be as bad as my three cheat days this week! I might start being one of those crazy people who goes to restaurants with their friends, but brings their own food.
  • Workout every day, and stretch!!!
    My calf muscle is still a bit achy, so I need to make sure I stretch it out.

I think I want to start weekly goals also, but I feel like my goals will be the same every week, like workout 5 days and stick to eating plan.

I totally hear you about getting anxious about cheat meals/days too. If I plan it out it's OK, but if not I get mad at myself, and this is not good. I think 3 cheats a week, based on what you consider a cheat, doesn't sound bad at all. I need to get my cheats back in line also! After being away for a week and "cheating" a lot of the time I need to get back in the saddle!

I love the idea of setting goals each week!

Jamie--
I often have the same goals each week, but I tweak them a little based on that week's needs :P

Danielle--
That run was my deciding factor! :P If I could manage to suck it up and do it, I figure I should train for a marathon and start believing in myself! I haven't decided which marathon though and I don't have a "plan" yet :P
