September Goals

Posted on the 02 September 2011 by Thesecretlifeofjen

Now that I am exercising regularly, I think it is time to focus on my nutrition.

I definitely don’t think that exercise has become a natural ‘habit’ for me, but perhaps it never will.  So I will still be planning September workouts, but hopefully I can start to incorporate the importance of nutrition too.

So starting with the easy stuff -

+  Maintain the amount of execise I managed through August, which means exercising minimum five days a week.
+  Weekly Yoga, Step and Shred, starting to incorporate Attack and Pump.
+  Continue jogging, I want to build up my endurance.
+  Burn a minimum of 2000 calories per day.

Now for the challenging aspects -

+  More accuracy in recording meals, stopping the guesswork.
+  Keeping my calories consumed under 1500, which means a minimum deficit of 500 calories per day.

Clearly, this will not be achievable all the time.  But, it will be the focus for all breakfasts and lunches(!), and dinners during the week.  So, if date night or catching up with friends is on the cards, then I will plan accordingly.

If I keep this up, I should be looking toward another 2kg loss by the end of the month, and closer toward reaching my goal before Christmas :)
