This was a better week. Finally we are getting better. It was my birthday and being good with food was not easy. The invitations out for lunch, dinner, the cake. It is hard to be good with all those temptations. It is really hard.

The week was busy but the weekend is perfect. We needed a long weekend to enjoy quality time with my son. I want to share with him more than the homework and usual. It was a mom/son weekend and all activities were thinking about him. We went to the movies, we also had some fun shopping for books and shoes for him, bike rides and visit to the museum to see the butterflies alive and dinosaur bones.

With a busy weekend with kid, I moved more than usual. Really good for me. Besides the elliptical we also walked a lot and had the bike ride. We also ate healthier with a lot of fruits and veggies.

My goals for this week is to keep moving. I am looking forward for the next 2weekchallenge to keep me more active. I guess that I need to report to someone what I am doing so I do not slack on it.

I am also packing lunch to work. It is easy to eat not that healthy when eating out and it gets expensive. I had stopped drinking soda and I went back to my diet coke. Trying to be with more sparkling water instead. I just get stressed out and rather have a diet coke than a piece of bread. One day, one day I will be able to leave my vice, to stop drinking soda. One day!

Happy Memorial day and I hope your weekend was as wonderful as mine

Hope you were able to have an amazing weekend with your son! I need a Mother/son weekend myself. My son is hard for me to handle and sometimes I think we just need to spend some one-on-one time to connect. The best part is he is also very active, so it benefits me to play with him.

Glad to hear it was a better week. And yes, I agree the goal should always be to move more. Simple, right? Sometimes we need to utilize the KISS method in weightloss and health. :) Have a good one!

Monica, have you tried twisting your sparkling water? That way you have more flavor and don't feel like you are missing out.

It sounds like you and your son had a great weekend. Do you use a pedometer to track your steps?

Good job on work lunches. I honestly get tired if I go out to eat two days on a row. Good luck on having another good week

Oh man. Taking your lunch is a smart, smart move. That always helped me make better choices. And I hear you on the sodas - I use them to reward myself. Good luck!
