March 3 in 30

When you stick some weight loss type goals on a list, the reporting tends to run like a dry boring workout list.  I really haven't the talent to make this interesting, but I feel compelled to list it to keep myself accountable.

My first two goals are not even one tiny bit accomplished.  I ignored the ship to get a little more focus on some 4H work and kicked the overflowing game pieces back under the door.  We did play a round of Rage and some checkers though.  So alas all I have to report for my 3 in 30 is the boring workout stuff.

Please feel free to skip the following (though I shall pretend you read every word hanging on the minute details so that I feel obligated to actually do something)- there is something about typing things out that makes me feel I have to complete things.

Day 1 - I did 5 things!  I went for a walk to the slides, the short way.  when I am really on the ball for energy I make the kids walk the long way.  rounds to about 1 mi.  This time I only had Baby Girl and Little One so we strolled the short way.  I blamed it on Baby Girls short legs.  Yes I know it was a rationalization, there is a reason I said 'move' not 'mile' in my goals!  I also snuck in some core work and such in the shower.  Used to always 'wall sit' while brushing teeth.  Somehow 2 minutes is an eternity when 'sitting' in an imaginary chair.  (and no I didn't make it the whole 2 minutes - but I did some!)
I also drank a ton of water.  Not sure how much, but it was more than normal.  And more is the goal right?

Day 2 - I woke up with great intentions, then I found no clean grown up glasses for my breakfast milk, I sulked over a tiny tiny little glass of milk and got sucked into a ratio problem with Dude.  Later I decided to type out my 'record' for the week and felt guilty about giving up so easily.  I found my metal 'car cup' to fill with water and a cut of lemon.  I keep lemons quartered in the freezer for when I am really not in the mood for yet another glass of water.  I also took a 5 minute break to do my 3 non walking things.  Mostly because it seemed a good way to procrastinate paying the bills.  It happened to be Tuesday and I count scouts as 'moving'.

Day 3 - I had plans of taking the day off.  Little One had other ideas, she insisted I be up and moving with her for much of the day.  I added a little music and we danced.  Later in the day I did some 'kid lifts' and had a giggle fest to top off the workout.  Unfortunately the water filter broke so I didn't have anywhere near enough water for the day.

Day 4 -  oh yeah this day was shot.  In more ways than one.  Though with the filter fixed I did manage quite a bit more water.

Day 5 - I was stuck in the car for much of the day but I did manage my three things and drank all the water I had available.  Could have been worse.

Day 6 - I spent the am dealing with 'drama' for scouts so I was on the phone and pacing.  I think that counts. I also did some of the other 3 before rolling out of bed for the day.  Water wise I drank 'some'.  which is more than none!
