Reflection

1. I've learned that once you've found a source of motivation, continuing forward is a lot easier.

2. I've enjoyed the added endorphins in my life, for sure. With the increased working out my quality of life is just so much better.

3. My goal was to become more aware of my fitness and then improve it. I have definitely reached this goal. However, this is and always will be an ongoing goal, and I plan on always working towards it.

4. I'll continue using my workout plan and I'll keep up my nutrition goals as well as I can so I can continue to feel the way that I've felt.

5. I do feel that I'll be able to maintain my fitness goals.

Food Feelings, Week 7

My food hasn't been too bad this week. I've been cooking more and making sure that I'm getting a balanced diet, but I'm not watching my sugar intake very well. I need to work on that.

Weekly Update, Week 7

Because I just moved my working out has still been somewhat hard, so my working out has mainly just been walking everywhere. It's been crazy busy and I haven't been able to sneak in a workout. But once everything's settled in I think I'll get a workout schedule back into effect.

Food Feelings, Week 6

I didn't pay specially close attention to my food this week. Since I was at Elevation I was eating fairly well for camping, but I was eating sugars and not as much meat as I'd like. So I'm hoping this week is better.

Weekly Update, Week 6

There was some walking and belaying of rock climbers that weren't put into my report this week. I was at Elevation and couldn't do my normal workouts.
