Trying and failing

When I lost my job I envisioned the days with doing my workouts, lots of hiking, biking, walks, and other activities. Also having time to do all the healthy cooking I dreamed of doing. Unfortunately the lazies overtook my life. Instead there was a lot of TV watching, naps and quick grab crap foods. And I gained. I keep making promises to myself to get better. But after a few days I will fall off again.

Don't get me wrong. I am not giving up. I signed up for another boot camp contest. I also got the fall detox. And while I haven't been perfect with either of these either I am really trying. I am promising myself I WILL get better and I WILL beat this. And by that I mean ME. Myself. Because I am the only one holding me back.  So here I am to write and try to track a new leaf. Wish me luck.

So first let me show you a few things from detox. These have been really good!

This is a stuffed acorn squash. It was SO good! I loved this and will be making it again soon!

This is a roasted root veggie salad I had for lunch. Again, VERY good! I especially loved the veggies and they smelled so good while cooking. I couldn't resist and added them to my dinner that night too.

Here is the dinner I had where I included the roasted root veggies. I also had spaghetti squash with tomatoes. There is a little parmesan cheese sprinkled on top.

 

Finally, this is a smoothie I had fro breakfast over the weekend. It is apple pie and while I was delicious it just isn't the same as my usual green smoothie and I miss my greens. LOL!!

OK, now. Lastly I want to make myself accountable. Or at least try to. So here is my goals:
boot camp my usual M-Th.
Hike on T and Th
Bike on M and W
Friday rest
Weekends follow a workout on my board.
Also, complete the 30 day burpee challenge!!
