How have things been? I am plugging away on this research project! The end is in sight!
I'm also very happy tomorrow is the first day of school! It's been a wonderful summer, but I am very happy to get back to a routine, and starting a new job as adjunct faculty member to boot! I will still be working for WW as well. This is an exciting time!
With this new season of my life, I have decided to give myself a new challenge: Serious commitment to a balanced diet and exercise! I know this is not new in some ways, but I am starting a new workout regimen and changing up my diet from the shame of the summer! Because changes on the scale will probably be slight, I have to think of better ways to measure progress. One way is taking pictures so as to compare them for progress. Another is based on how my clothes feel. Finally, journaling about how I feel (physically). These can all serve as victories, but are not necessarily measurable on the scale.
These are how I will measure victory for right now, but there are all kinds of ways to measure victory-- did you park farther from your building and walk in? Did you take the stairs instead of the elevator? Did you pass up birthday cake at the office gathering?
What are some victories you hope to achieve this week?
I love blogs... so excited to see that you have one! Victory for me is when the chocolate chip cookies are not gone the SAME day that I made them. (seeing as how I am the primary consumer of said cookies).
