captain_slinkyBreakfast: Baked Chicken Breast
Lunch: Baked Chicken Breast
Dinner: Taco Salad (seasoned Turkey taco meat, lettuce, baby spinach, cheese, greek yogurt, taco sauce)
Gym: 1.7 Miles, 1.7 Total
Clean: 20/10 X2
Here I go again! My goal is to do this for 60 days, because by then (according to The Guy On The Radio Who Was Selling A Book About Accomplishing Goals) it will be *habbit*.
The guy on the radio hooked me with this line, and will be my tag line for all these Diet posts: "The best time to plant a tree was ten years ago. The second best time is RIGHT NOW".
Not sure why that has so much inspiration for me, but it does. It really, really does :)
The Gym, as always, will be keeping track of how far I walk/cycle/elliptical in miles to try and see if I can virtually "walk to Disneyland" :)
The cleaning is a new system that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
khristle introduced me to through UnF*ck Your Habitat, an excellent blog for people who have trouble cleaning stuff like I do. They propose that when you clean, limit yourself to either 20-minute bursts with a 10-minute break between them, or 45-minute bursts with 15-minute breaks. This really helps overcome the overwhelming sens of "Oh crap where do I even start???" crush that usually keeps me from cleaning. With a 20 or 45 minute burst of cleaning I can just kind of flit around the house doing whatever is in my path and then take a break and look around to see what still needs to be done.
As long as I do at least 1 45/15 or 2 20/10's, I feel like I've accomplished something each day :)
