WEEK TWO

Congratulate yourself for all your week one efforts!! (I had some victories and some defeats).  Keep in mind our goal is healthy habits and forming habits can take time.  Stay with it!  You are on the path to a healthy you.

Week two continue with your diet/exercise journal.

Reminder:
Healthy eating = breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner (consistent fuel throughout the day).
1200-1500 calories for women = Three 300-400 calorie meals and two 100-150 calorie snacks.
1500-1800 calories for men =Three 400-500 calorie meals and two 100-150 calorie snacks.

Week two exercise:
You are now moving 37 minutes a day and you have added seven pushups and sit-ups to your routine. This week continue to add one minute of movement each day and one sit-up and pushup a day.  If the sit-ups and pushups get to be too much just break them up into sets (example 50 sit-ups can be broken down into two sets of twenty five). 

New exercise for week two:
This week we are adding a work out video to our routine.  I personally have several dusty old ones laying around (I think one has never even been opened). 
So dig out that old work out video, borrow one from the library, rent one from the video store, check out your favorite trainer on Netflix or purchase one that looks fun.
Don’t worry about completing it (if some exercises are too hard just do what you can).  You will improve each attempt you make.  Stay moving and have fun!!

Have a happy healthy day!!
