Battle Plan

In order to win my battle with weight I am going to follow a "Healthy Points" plan. Each day I will receive a certain number of points for doing certain healthy things.
1 pt Drinking 9 cups of water
1 pt Eating no more than 40g of sugar
1 pt No white (bleached/enriched) bread
1 pt No sweets/desserts
1 pt 6-8 hours of sleep
1 pt 5 servings of vegetables and fruit
1 pt Eating a good breakfast
1 pt No food past 8:00pm
1 pt 10,000 steps (15,000 = 1.5, etc.)
1 pt Scripture Study
1 pt Personal Prayer
1 pt Being Tidy
1 pt Stretching Out
1 pt for every 100 calories burned in a workout

Sunday is a free day. I automatically receive full points (except workout) but can earn double points if I actually maintain my healthy habits throughout the day.
At the end of every week I will add up my points and reward myself accordingly with cash for splurging on myself--clothes, mani/pedis, massage, etc.
80-84 pts $5
85-89 pts $10
90-94 pts $15
95-99 pts $20
100-104 pts $25
105-109 pts $30
110+ $35

Sacrifices of Motherhood

My hubby had the flu at the beginning of the week and last night my little girl would not go to sleep til 1:00am while I started flu symptoms.  Adrenaline kicked in around 12:30a and I couldn't get to sleep until 3:00am.  Which means only 4 hours of sleep--point lost; couldn't make my morning workout, the only time I had available today--points not made; needed an energy boost so got an all fruit jamba which had 55g of sugar--point lost.  I will go for perfection next week.  Right now Mariah is finally sleeping and I am going to join her.
