Good morning all!!!!!
I am officially down 2 pounds this week. I was down 5, but a weekend of eating on the run did me in. I seriously need to stop weighing myself EVERYDAY! Oh well I'll take the two pounds and smile.
This week I am really going to focus on exercise. I need to add more intentional exercise on a consistent basis. Last week I met all my goals and then some. Doing all that exercise made me feel exicted, in control and energized. I like that feeling. My goal is to do 50 crunches EVERYDAY, walk or do a dvd 5 days, and do my upper body routine with weights 3 days.
Do you think things like gardening, hauling rock to build garden walls is intentional exercise? I didn't do it specifically for the exercise, but it's not something I do on a regular basis, I had to make myself do it. I feel I need to get outside moer and be more active, so I am putting in a flower bed, so I have to maintian it. We also put in our vegetable garden, which will need to be maintained. When Dr. Phil says "intentional" exercise I think treadmill and weights. When I think of the concept of just moving more I kind of consider that "accidental" exercise. So what's everyone's take on that? Is doing activities like gardening, heavy cleaning, yard work considered intentional exercise? Or should I be doing "intentional exercise" in addition to this "accidental exercise"?
How much water does everyone drink? How much water should I be drinking? I usually average about 60 ounces a day. But I notice some people are drink ALOT more. Should I be aiming higher? I read some formula one time that had you drink a base amount and then for weight loss, on top of that you were supposed to drink so many ounce for so many pounds.
Well I need to get. HAVE A SUPER WEEK EVERYONE!
