Our town Challenge Movin' Mountains has started again. I'm all about accountability and several events, gyms, aquatic center have special deals if you are involved in the challenge.
I've also been doing a challenge with my yoga teacher. Our first food goal was to eat 5 fruits and veggies every day. I have a smoothie with spinach, 1/2 banana, and some other type of frozen fruit every morning, so there is 3 out of the 5.
The second food thing she has been having us do is eat 1/2 our weight in protein, every day! In order to keep track I started keeping a journal of what I eat on My Fitness Pal. I can keep a total of my protein that way. I have to keep an eye on it, but so far it hasn't been too difficult either.
So, there's my January tips. Try to do those 2 things if you don't already.
I went out for my first run this past weekend! Yay! For no snow on the roads!!
Thanks for the tips! I need to get back into it and my fitness pal starts today!!
ReplyDeleteWhat does this mean? "eat 1/2 our weight in protein, every day!" It sounds like if you weighed 120 pounds you d eat 60 pounds of protein. Prob not! Pls explain?
