Resetting

 

My Health Planner 

I ordered this from Hobby Lobby and the undated inserts for a year. I have fallen off the wagon and I've updated the challenge and weigh in pages. My weight shows that I have fallen off the wagon. So how am I using this planner?

Tracking:

• weight
• blood sugar
• mental health
• medications
• symptoms
• sleep
• hours I eat
• 64 oz of fluid intake
• I'm aiming for 3 meals, 1 snack if I feel like it, recording it all
  
• self care throughout the week
• No soda
• No alcohol-part of the 75 soft challenge I am starting today
• exercise  aiming for 30 minutes which is part of the 75 Soft
• Eat Well part of the 75 Soft
• reading 10 pages a day-part of 75 Soft
• 1 day of rest from physical exercise

Where my physical activity is concerned I'm aiming for 30 minute walks outside which will be possible now that Texas weather is hitting the 70s and above. Plus I will also be doing Walk Away The Pounds videos from You Tube and counting up the miles as well. Plus I'm trying to be more active around the house. 

Eating well for me is severely limiting to completely due away with sodas. I already dont drink alcohol so that is going to be an easy one. No candy, chips, eating more fruit and veggies, low carb meals. Eating food that will help to lessen my insulin resistance and inflammation in my body. I want to work on drinking more water but I'm not a fan of plain water even infused water with lemons and limes and such, just not a fan. 

75 soft also wants progress pictures. This picture is from a few years ago but body wise it is on spot for me currently still which is something I truly want to change. 

I have a goal that I want to reach come the end of the year Dec 31 I want to be at 200 lbs or below.  That is 30 lbs and I have 8 months which means I need to aim for a 3 lb loss a month. That is truly NOT unreachable. And my other major goal I want to reach at the end of the year is to be Non Diabetic and off that medication for good.

I also now have a weight loss accountable buddy that I will be checking in with 2 times a week. I'm excited to start my version of 75 soft. 

An example of how I am daily tracking:

As I go along the challenge I will share more pics once I have one filled out to give you a better view of how I'm doing it and also for my own accountability. 

Plus then when I go back to the doctor everything is recorded in 1 place. No worrying about having to write this or that down.
