Week Review

Grade:

Did I reach my goals this week? If not, why?

Yes, I reached the goals I made. I didn’t exercise on Saturday. I’m not quite sure why. I had plenty of time to. I guess I forgot to in a way. I didn’t schedule a time to do it.

Otherwise, I did great this week. I think I’m ready to increase my goals for the next ‘year’. I know last week I didn’t do so great but I believe it’s because other factors going on at that time. I do need to be able to adapt to environmental changes better.

Why do I feel this way about my progress?

See above. I think I did great this week.

What were my 3 biggest wins?

1. I went to hot yoga when I wanted to stay in bed.
2. I exercised six out of seven days.
3. The weather was nice and we were able to walk outside.

What made me happy?

Being outside with nice weather! Cooking some new things, baking more bread. (I’m not sure I have found a good whole wheat bread recipe yet, weather it’s with sourdough or not. I also need to perfect my sourdough a bit.)

What lessons did I learn or what insights did I gain?

Don’t eat chocolate cake for breakfast. I didn’t have chocolate cake at home; that was at church for someone’s birthday. I had just went on an ambulance call and was running late to church. It sounded good at the time.

I need to exercise in the morning! This is difficult for me. I just have a difficult getting up earlier.

How can I improve next week?

I can work on doing my exercising in the mornings!
