WEEK 6: REFLECT AND REVISE
Janye writes:We are half way through the challenge! Week 6 is here!!!
I want you to
reflect on what has been and get yourself ready for the next 6 weeks! By this
point you may have gotten off to a flying start or some of you way have not. I
want all of us to finish strong no matter what has been! after all this is
about the rest of our lives! Every effort you make will only bring you closer
to your goal. Be honest and move forward.
Have you been doing
your 6 days of training? How has your nutrition been? What needs to change? Is
there anything you want to do differently going into the next 6 weeks? What are
you committing to? Commit to your fellow bloggers! Lets support each other!
What are your
goals? To lose x amount of weight or are you training towards something?
Why you want to do
it? How will you get there? What's your plan of action?
What is your
ultimate goal if you have one? Remind yourself of what your every positive
action will get you closer to!
We can do it!!!!
Anything is possible! If we put in the work! I also wanted to make a shout out
to anyone that would like to do a guest post on any challenge week and we can
all respond! Please let me know if your interested! Thanks :)

Round 2 Goals
·
Maintain
my goal weight

so I’m using my Round 1 info as a guide)
Reflect
and Revise
Ok so we’re half way through Round 2
and I’ve managed to tick one goal off my list – maintain my goal weight. I’ve achieved this by focussing primarily on
my nutrition, but unfortunately my training has been neglected – badly.
It’s been three weeks since I got an
upper respiratory tract infection and I’ve still got an annoying niggling cough
that I just can’t seem to shake. I know it doesn’t sound too serious, but when
you have Lupus you can’t afford to
ignore these kinds of things. So for the last 3 weeks my training has been
limited to incidental housework and playtime with my little munchkin. But now
it’s time to finally get back into a routine and simply make time for my training.
The
Next 6 Weeks
Prioritise
and diarise.
I love this statement. This was
used during Round 1 and it’s stuck with me!
I’m one of those people who has to
write everything down! I love diaries, calendars, notebooks and writing “to-do
lists”. Nothing gives me more satisfaction than crossing an item off my action
list! So that being said, I’m going to plan out my week – nutrition and fitness
– and stick to it!!
I know my limits (i.e. family, work
and health) so I’m going to have to be realistic about my schedule, and work
towards creating an achievable balance.
Proposed
Schedule – Training
Monday – No scheduled training (work)
Tuesday – No scheduled training (work)
Wednesday – No scheduled training
(work)
Thursday – Work out at home (exercise
DVD/x-trainer/weights while little man has his nap)
Friday – Work out at home (exercise
DVD/x-trainer/weights while little man has his nap)
Saturday – Work out at home (x-trainer
first thing in the morning)
Sunday – Fun in the sun with the
family (playing in the park, going for a walk)
Proposed
Schedule – Nutrition
- Plan each week’s menu and stick to it.
- Make sure I do a big cook up on Sunday afternoon so that healthy dinners are ready for those days I have to work, and don’t have time to cook.
- Eat clean during the week and relax on the weekend.
- Limit of one coffee a day (this is only a problem on the days that I’m at work).
- No hot chips or fizzy drink (enjoying these as a “treat” is simply not worth the upset tummy afterwards!)
- Increase calorie intake to 1300 cals/day (in order to effectively maintain goal weight).
