Fitness Friday!

Friday, Friday, FRIDAY
And if you are lucky like me, it's a three day weekend!
No school, no work for three whole dayssssss! This weekend will be super busy for me though, so we will she how much of "nothing" I actually get to do.

But on to fitness! I find that the weekend is the toughest couple of days to get through when trying to stick to a healthy routine. For me, exercising is easier because on weekdays I go to school and work all day so when I get off at 5 I am pooped and just want to lay down (and the homework hasn't started yet, and when that happens..look out. I won't be the best example of exercising everyday). But on the weekends I get to take full advantage of the beautiful weather and get out there and run or something! 

Eating, now that is a different story. There is just so many good things to eat on the weekend! Between football parties, going out to eat after church and just being at home more and having access to all kinds of snacks, it is difficult! 

BUT I HAVE A SOLUTION!
A fittness and meal planner!

I LOVE THIS! I made it not to long ago, because I find that I eat better if I follow a list of what I am going to eat each day! On Sunday mornings, I sit down and map out my week (Sunday's are when I go grocery shopping). I even plan out my "cheat meal" so I don't go overboard. Sometimes I have to make some unexpected modifications (if we go out to eat but I'll get a salad). I plan all my meals out so that they stay in my calories for the day!

I love it! I print out seven and put them in clear paper protectors in a folder. That way, I can reuse them with dry erase markers every week!

Have a great weekend and don't get discouraged from fitness!
