Well, i did pretty crappy job at these goals. Lets go through them.
1. Work out 3 times a week: this was off and on, one week i would 4 or 5 times the next none then maybe once or twice. i really need to learn consistency.
2. lower my commute time. This one is tricky. i did ride harder for a while, but my knees hurt so bad on those days i decided this must be why i slowed down. I am going to give up on this for my own good. I will work hard to get a work out when i ride but i don't necessarily need to get to work faster if it is going to put me in pain.
3. Clean eating. this one is on and off also. my snacks aren't bad ive been eating yogurt and fruit or nuts but my meals were getting very fattening. we found a really good bbq place here and my homesickness lead me to eat bbq over 4 times in the last week and a half. but i made a new start on this a few days ago. I have eaten at least 1 salad a day. a healthy salad too. plus fruit for breakfast and sometimes peanut butter for protein and oatmeal when i want something hot. tonight i made very fatty muffins so i guess im gonna cheat again. my pants aren't fitting all that well, so im guessing im putting on my annual winter fat. im kinda sad about this, but i should just be motivated and work out more. I know im going to have trouble eating well especially when its cold and i want comfort food, but i NEED to work out.
4. this one i am honestly ashamed of. i don't know what it is blocking me from reading scripture but i just struggle so much to pick up my bible. im not even going to admit how bad i did. twice a week should be very manageable, but i still fail at this.
i really want to do better at these goals before i write new ones. so i shall try again! reading my oxygen magazine. (Thanks alexanne) helps a lot with working out because it gives me motivation. it is also teaching me about eating clean, since before it i had never even heard the term eating clean.
