Morning Friends!!  How was your night?  Sleep well??   Let’s back up a couple of days….I can’t believe it’s August!  Holy Cow, where has the year gone??  I can’t believe that there are only 5 months left in the year.  Pretty soon we will be shopping for Christmas gifts!

I am your strength and shield.  I  plan out each day and have it ready for you, long before you arise from bed.

 

 

August Goals:

So I have been thinking about some goals that I would like to set for myself.  I wanted them to be realistic and something that I could and will reach.  It’s funny, I am so goal oriented and task oriented at work, but sometimes I fly by the seat of my pants when I am not at work.    This can be a good thing, but it can also mean that some of the goals that I make for myself get swept under the rug.  I don’t want to do that!

1. Push-up challenge.  I started this challenge a few days ago and I want to keep doing it.  I started with 10 push-ups and each day I add one more.  I am up to 17.  This is not a lot, but I want to do them correctly, not just rush through them.
2. Carbs.  I really want to watch my carb intake.  More specifically, simple carbs.
3. Continue to build endurance when it comes to running.  To be honest, I never thought in a million years that I could whip out 4 miles!
4. Yoga.  Still continue to increase my flexibility and take care of my muscles.

These are things that I have been working on for a bit now, but just wanted to write them down.     Looking at the list, it doesn’t seem like a whole lot, but that is ok with me. 

Meal Plan:

Breakfast:    egg/turkey bacon/toast

snack:    protein bar or greek yogurt

Lunch:    turkey burger (minus the bun) with spinach and provolone cheese/steamed broccoli

snack:    cherries

Dinner:   dinner out

Snack:   probably not have one

After work tonight, I am meeting a friend and we are going out to eat and then to a movie!  Step Up Revolution.  Can’t wait!!

Have a great day!!
