Saturday, June 27th

I am so proud of myself (and of Becki)! We made it through the weekend without going out to eat once! It was awesome! We started off the day taking the kids and going on a short hike up to Bridal Veil falls. Becki's sisters and a few neices and nephews came up as well. We had a ton of fun and hiked up with the kids on our backs to the bottom of the waterfalls (the furthest you are allowed to go). The kids really enjoyed it.

We then came back home, accomplished some tasks, and then headed out to the SCERA pool. We had the kids out there for about 3 hours. Again, we had a blast. We then came home and I mowed our lawn and trimmed as well. It was a very active day, and I was exhausted by the evening time. One of our little nephews turned to us and said, "This is the best day of my life!" It was really cute!

I attribute the success of the day to planning ahead and staying active. Becki is such a great supporter since we are both on the same page when it comes to our goals and supporting each other in obtaining and acheiving the daily things we want to do to inch ourselves closer to the prize.

I started my chart for the rest of our coaching. I was able to get pretty far in a short period of time. Becca gave me a really good idea to measure my "muscle machine"-ness. I am going to have a couple milestones throughout the training for lifting a certain amount of weight on specific lifts. Watch out weight room!

Meals for the day
9 am Raisins, and nuts mix while hiking to the falls.
11:30 am Efusjon Health Drink
2 pm Banana Health Shake
4 pm Efusjon Health Drink
8 pm BBQ with Becki's sisters (beats, 1 hamburger, a couple bratwurst, macaroni salad-just a small portion, and a little Kool-Aid).

The BBQ lasted for a while so I count that as two meals. We sat out on the deck and just enjoyed the evening. I also was trying not to nod off. I was so tired!

By the end of the week I felt totally spent...in a good way. My muscles were tired and I really felt like I had accomplished a great deal by working out everyday and accomplishing all of my momentum activities.
