Here are my goals for the week.
At least 4 days of exercise, 50 reps on Ab Coaster every time I go to the gym and drink 8-10 glasses of water a day. I have been doing well with water but I’m finding that I’m slacking a little so I want to really be mindful of how much water I do drink every day.
Oh and I have been really bad about taking my measurements on a consistent monthly basis so it’s back to doing that and taking pictures.
What are your goals for the week?
Knees are feeling better but still ache. As you know, I gave up one Turbo Kick class but I also took a break from spin class for a few weeks. We’ll see what this week brings. Hope I can kick it up because it won’t be long until we leave for our Jamaican vacation.

Today’s Tip: Advantages of Eating Breakfast
There are quite a few advantages of eating breakfast. Eating breakfast will help keep you from snacking throughout the day, give you more energy and help you concentrate better. Refueling yourself after a night of sleep is very important. Eating breakfast will help raise your metabolism too. Make sure your breakfast includes the following: whole grain, fiber, calcium and protein.
It was definitely a challenge for me to add breakfast to my day as I was only drinking coffee. But gradually I did start eating it and what a positive difference it made and now I can’t live without it. If you are like I was and are only used to drinking coffee for breakfast, you could whip up a quick smoothie, eat a piece of fruit, or have a slice of toast with peanut or almond butter to start. I’ll touch on more great breakfast ideas in another post sometime.
Do you eat breakfast on a daily basis? If so, please feel free to share some of your favorite healthy breakfast foods. If you don’t currently eat breakfast, I would like to challenge you to start your day right with a healthy breakfast.

Goal Call Monday time! My goals for the week are pretty simple as I’m still trying to take it easy on my knees but they are feeling much better. I modified some moves at Turbo Kick class tonight that I feel helped. We’ll see.
This week:
At least 5 days of exercise (anything goes, Turbo Kick, low impact, strength training, etc.)

A much better week even though I had to take it easy on my knees and give up one Turbo Kick class for a while. Boo hoo! Thanks for all the support last week.
