Mamavation Monday - weekly recap

Happy Monday!!! I'm very excited today for 2 reasons. The first, after a long worthwhile wait, I was finally matched with my buddy. What does that mean? Well, he will be my motivator for running, and fitness and I will be doing it for him. It's so exciting!!! If you are interested, you can sign up here. Second, I just finished the #2weekchallenge and I am down 2.5 lbs, and an inch each on my waist, hips and thighs. This was the kickstart I needed and I hope the weight continues to drop :)  Ok, so here's my recap for last week -

Monday - #2weekchallenge, circuit training, 15 mins bike
Tuesday - #2weekchallenge, 4 mile run
Wednesday - #2weekchallenge which was a 30 min walk
Thursday - #2weekchallenge, circuit training, 3.26 mile run
Friday - #2weekchallenge
Saturday - 1 hr basketball with my youngest, bowling
Sunday - Mamavation virtual 5k, bowling

I worked really hard on portion control, but I need to change up a little of what I eat :) So my goals for next week are still portion control, and better eating. Here's my exercise plan -

Monday - circuit training, 15 mins bike or elliptical
Tuesday - 3-4 mile run
Wednesday - not sure yet, maybe a DVD program
Thursday - circuit training, run
Friday - another DVD program?
Saturday/Sunday - run/rest

I'm sure there will be some basketball and bowling mixed in there :) In a week or 2, I am going to repeat the #2weekchallenge on my own. I think it's something extra my body needs to do monthly.

Tonight on Mamavation TV, we are discussing strengthening your core, an area I definitely need to work on. :) As always, it's at 9 pm EST on our google hangout. Come check it out with me!!!
