Hello and Happy Monday! Even though I was on vacation all last week I am not ready to get back to the real world yet. Oh well, here we go!
In order to help me bounce back from vacation Iām setting Monday Mini-Goals again. I love the idea of weekly goal setting. One step at a time, right?
Goals for the week of 9/13/10:
1. Get 8 hours of sleep every night.
2. Do Jillianās 30 Minute Shred every day until Saturday.
3. Eat Clean ā specifically, no candy, ice cream or cookies. I overdid it on vacation and want to clean up my eats this week.
Run ā I did 5.5 slow miles this morning. Level 1 Shred made me sore and my muscles didnāt want to cooperate. This only proves how much I need to do more strength training. Ouch.
This morning I was craving a fruit smoothie, but donāt have any fruit flavored protein powder (Iām returning the last one I bought). I decided to try this individual packet of Teraās Whey in Chocolate.
The nutritional information is amazing! 20 grams of protein for 110 calories. Nice.
I blended the packet with ice, water, spinach and chia seeds. For some reason it didnāt want to incorporate well and was clumpy no matter how long I left it blending. Boo.
Outside of that it was tasty. But, I still want to track down my fave protein powderā¦
With a PB&J bagel on the side.

My Mini goals are to get up by 8:00 a.m. and start my car. I also found some great things on “exercise tv” and want to try a few after I finish my work.

Amber K says
To hit the gym every day this week. Not at the same intensity, but to at least remain in the habit!
And to determine to figure out a way to *ahem* keep everything flowing without having to rely on dairy!
Alyssa says

Exercise and Eat says
Love the mini goals! And your PB bagel… You’re making me crave nut butter myself!
kristy @ kristyruns.com says
Those 8 hours at night are way harder to obtain than you’d think! I need more sleep during the week nights in a bad way! Here’s to us getting adequate rest! š
Karen says
Mini goals are the best! They totally help keep me focused on the smaller picture….which I tend to forget and want to jump over!
My goals are to stay positive, track every day and to take a rock climbing course on Saturday!
Lisa says
My goal this week is to think positive thoughts and try to heal from my running injury. And try not to get too mopey…
runeatrepeat says
Take it easy and let your body heal. You will be back running in no time!
Karyn says
yay mini goals! definitely a good idea to be held accountable on a short time interval. mine is to get at least 6 hours of sleep each night. I WANT 8+ but realistically I think I’m going to have to shoot for 6 then build my way up
