Oof, last month was a slide back into old habits. I nearly lost my first DietBet and needed the two days to weigh out. This month, I’m determined to focus on the healthy habits that helped me in the past.
Ugh.. I know what works so I don’t know why I slip back…
This month will be different, because I’m back to making goals and I’m going to check in each week to stay accountable.
Game Plan
- Drink 6 (16oz) Water Bottles a Day. This is #1. When I focus on my water I feel great! I may even make some cucumber, lemon, and mint water again… I made myself a bracelet to track so that should help too.
- Small Sweat Sessions. With the nice weather, I’ve been lookin forward to a run as my workout each day, but sometimes life gets in the way and I don’t make it out. That, along with really needing to build some muscle and tone up, is why I’ve decided to try to get in 2-3 mini workouts a day.
- Track Everyday! I’ve gotten away from tracking with MyFitnessPal, but it makes a works of difference when I do.
- Meal Plan. I do so much better when there is a plan, even if I know to plan a seperate meal for the family and myself. I also have the help of a nanny 3 mornings this week and will need to plan snacks and lunch for myself.
- Brush teeth with the kids. This one helps my late-night snacking but I almost always want a snack after the kids go to bed. I think I’ll make sure to do this one even if I have room for a snack, maybe it will at least slow me down!
What are you favorite things to do to get yourself back on track?
Great plan! My eating has been terrible lately. My #1 fix is to just keep it out of the house. I didn’t do so well with this last trip to the grocery store…maybe next time. I love the idea of brushing your teeth with the kids. I’m so gonna start doing that! 🙂

Whew! Just cleared hundreds of spam comments out and found your comment hiding in there! I’ve had to have my husband hide certain things like his stash of chips, snacks, and candy. I could not be trusted around it last week! The brushing teeth helps a lot, although there are those moments when I can’t fight it and end up brushing twice. :/ womp, womp…
I love your game plan! I’m going to join you!
