Week 6 of Diet Transformation

We have just completed week 5 of our diet transformation!

How did you do?I didn't do so well with the issue that came up with my tooth. I'm not letting it get me down. I'm just going to forget last week and start with a new week this week.

Are you going to http://www.womenshealth.gov/activity/, to log your daily activity?Keeping a journal and logging my information on the fitness tracker is helping me to see where I'm making mistakes or why the scale may be up.

Are you ready for week 6 of the challenge? This is the final week.

Here's what we'll do this week:


Eat healthy. Eat whatever you want, following the general rules we've followed for the last five weeks. You may be surprised to find yourself craving something healthy instead of a candy bar or pint of Ben & Jerry's. You should now be better at listening to your body because it will tell you what it needs to eat, as opposed to what you're used to eating - especially if you're working out. Keep a couple of cheating days, allowing yourself to give in to occasional indulgences. Just try not to overdo it.

Don' t forget to throw in some excercise this week as well. I

'm also going to stay off the scale for awhile. I think I've been letting it "rule" me. I'm going to shoot for a week, maybe longer... if I can handle it. This is a tough one for me. I'm used to weighing daily... but I do notice it really getting in the way of my progress. This will truely be my challenge this week.

Are you up for this week's challenge?

Please join me and feel free to post comments or about your successes or struggles. I would love to help you.

We can do this!I'll check in with you within the next week. Good luck!
