21 Days Report Card Time!



Its that time again over at the Sisterhood for today is the end of the 21 days challenge!
This challenge had us choosing 3 new "habits" to form or change for 21 days!  Let's see how we did, m'kay?

1. Spend at least 15-30 mins daily tidying up.

I'd have to say I failed at this one.  Maybe not a total F but pretty close.  Some days I did better than others but yeah, Suck.

2. 30 mins minimum of exercise a day

Well now, I'll give myself a B+ on this.  Some days I was walking/running over 5 kms and some days like yesterday, I didn't get anything done.  But I did put in a concerted effort to get some exercise almost everyday.

3. Eliminate night time snacking

Surprisingly enough, I thought I did a great job on this one!  Granted, my eating choices haven't been that great but at least I was choosing poorly before 9 pm!  More evenings than not I wasn't eating after 9 so I'm pretty proud of myself on this one!  An A for effort at least.

My weigh in this morning wasn't surprising.  I started at 120.4 lbs and have ended at...you guessed it, 120.4 lbs.  I'm happy with this, its right around my healthy weight for me and in order to take off more poundage, I'd have to put in some serious and conscious effort.  If I keep active, I'm happy with that.

21 Days Weigh In!

Over at the Sisterhood, they are starting a new challenge!  I sooooo need this challenge or I need something to get me back onto the road, on the bike, back in it, whatever you want to call it *and* to keep me motivated.

First, February happened and with that came the Olympics of which I was obsessed and a major couch potato!  In our house, we love the Olympics and watch as much of it as humanly possibly.  Olympics+Couch Potato=No exercise.

When March came in like a lion, it was a pretty lazy lion!  Not much exercising, snacking and then a vacation.  It wasn't pretty.  I knew I was forming some bad habits but couldn't seem to get out of my rut.

And now its April.  I've been better getting more exercise since it appears to be spring but...we just got a puppy and she's a tremendous amount of work right now but she is motivating in that she needs to be walked so this is good.  When I'm ready to throttle her, she can motivate me, nu?

So as May begins, I will endeavor to get back to some of my good habits that I was forming!  And that will be hard, I tell you.  Soccer has started so for my daughter that is 3 times a week at least and my son plays twice a week (both play on Tuesday nites, gotta love that) and throw a puppy into the mix, life should be interesting.

Opening Weight: 120.4 lbs.  Quite honestly, I am floored that since I haven't weighed myself in 57 days but my weight has not changed!  This is good, this is good!

My habits.

1. Spend at least 15-30 mins daily tidying up.
2. 30 mins minimum of exercise a day
3. Eliminate night time snacking
