So my first day on SparkPeople. I have been running around the site trying to familiarize myself with everything and getting spark points. I've also chosen and started on my Fast Break Goals. They are:
Eat a high fiber/high protein breakfast
Get 10 minutes of cardio exercise
Write in a journal
Goal number 1 was reached with a high fiber bread with cheese for breakfast.
Goal number 2 was reached by jumping rope for 10 minutes (after which I thought I was going to DIE)
And I am now doing goal number 3 (pats back).
I also have as one of my goals to drink 8 cups of water a day. I've just finished cup number 5 and feel all sloshy. This is going to have to substitute some of my cups of tea. Which is probably a good thing to begin with.
The jump rope is something I have been meaning to start for about a year since getting outside for exercise around here for 6 months out of the year can be hard (to much snow and no safe shovelled paths). So maybe the 10 minutes a day will get me going in the right direction. I am counting the amount of skips I can do without getting caught. Today's high was 64. Care to join me?
