Mamavation Monday - August 2, 2010

Dang it's been two weeks since I last checked in - ack! It's been a really busy two weeks is all I can say. If you have read my Menu Plan Monday post you can see what I have been up too.  Last week I struggled to just get from one day to the next without losing my mind.  Lots of adjustments going on and honestly my exercise goals and healthy eating went right out the window this last week. I think I held it together fairly well the week before, but really I can't remember much. ;)  Last week was just a whole new dance routine and it's taken me a bit to find my rhythm and learn my steps. Obviously it's going to take a little bit and I am trying to be compassionate with myself during this period of change.

Goals for this week:


Food Plan: I have created a vision and a plan for what I want this week to look like.  I created a menu plan & I precooked all of this week's suppers on Saturday, so that we would have healthy meals.  My basic meal plan is as follows and suppers can be found here. {Supper will be around 6pm or so}

My vision is a calm week with time to take care of my needs so that I can better serve my family and others.  Taking care of my needs includes eating healthy {making self-honoring choices}, getting some exercise {goal is daily - even if it's just a 6 minute #NEWO - anything to move my body and work towards a strong healthy body}, drinking lots of water {my skin is starting to change since I've been working towards including my pure water in my diet}, time for rest, relaxation, creativity, and meditation.
