Hey Chicks,
Happy Friday! I wish I could say I have some fab plans for R&R this weekend but I am actually heading to Ottawa withe Jackie, our Chief Chick Sergeant, to spread some FC luv at the Ottawa Women’s Show so I will be working all weekend. But that will not stop me from trying to stay on track with my 5 healthy goals this week…here is the update as to how I have been doing:
UPDATE ON LAURA’S 5 GOALS THIS WEEK
1. Attend 2 Bikram Yoga Classes in addition to my cardio / weight routine
I have not made it one class so far this week and am now afraid I won’t be able to go over the weekend as I am at the show. For next week, I am putting this as top priority to get these 2 classes in! I also feel like I was kind of purposely avoiding yoga which sends me a red flag that I am avoiding dealing with something emotionally. You can’t hide from it in yoga (bring on the waterworks during camel pose!) so I am committing to next week to schedule these in.
2. Drink 1 green smoothie everyday (at least 2 cups of greens ie. spinach, kale, swiss chard in each)
This one I have been doing faithfully! As I mentioned in a previous post, I was challenging my self to give up coffee for green smoothies. Well, I came to realize just how much I LOVE my coffee so have now started including the green smoothies for nutritional value and maxing my coffee at 2 a day.
3. Walk a min of 10k steps on my pedometer daily
I have been hitting my 10k / day – yippee! Yesterday, I only got to 7688 steps but made up for it the day prior with 13678 so I feel that balanced out:)
4. Get my legs waxed! (Sounds terrible but I have been putting it off forever and it makes me feel good when I don’t feel like I have an extra layer of clothing/ fur on!)
Been deliquent and am still a yeti! But I am making the appointment for next week.
5. Make the Stuffed Peppers with Quinoa that I have had on my ” Delicious, Healthy Must Try Recipe” List.
I am going to attack this recipe in Ottawa this weekend for Jackie and I post show. My family lives in Ottawa so I am going to take over Mama J’s kitchen. I am sure she won’t mind…as long as they turn out!!
So now I am off to pack so have a super fab weekend, Chicks, and we will keep ya posted on how the show goes! Also, don’t forget that Oct GI JANE Bootcamps are up for registration so sign up today to secure your spot.
PS. If in Toronto this weekend, we will also be at the Toronto Bridal Show so stop by and say hi!
Laura, your Head Chick xo
