- My SMART goal: I will eat at least 4 servings (1/2 cup) of fruits or vegetables (or a mix) every day for the next 10 weeks.
- I once again fell short of my goal for this week, however I have not been eating unhealthy snacks I just haven’t been eating as many fruits and vegetables
2. Address successes & challenges. What strategies helped you to be successful? What challenges did you face? How did you deal with them?
- I have been back home since Friday and I am limited to what is here at my parent’s house and at my grandparent’s farm. Since I have been deer hunting for the past 5 days I really don’t spend much time at home and kind of disregard what I have been eating.
- I have been trying to bring fruits and vegetables with me hunting and keeping them in the car, however I have still fallen short of my goal 3 days.
3. What feelings did you experience? When did you feel them?
- I really haven’t felt any different this week; other than being tired all of the time. Feeling tired isn’t a result of my diet change it is due to my sleep schedule.
4. What did you learn this week?
- I learned that this goal is still attainable, I just need to make a better attempt to eat fruits and vegetables. I feel like I have been a bit lazy over this week in trying to make this gal a reality.
5. What are your plans for next week? Will you continue with the change as is? Will you modify to make it more achievable or more challenging?
- My challenges for this upcoming week continues to be the fact that I will be deer hunting until Sunday. Also with thanksgiving approaching fast I will have the temptations of a plethora of tasty deserts and snacks. It will be interesting to see how this next week plays out, but all in all I need to become more responsible for attaining this goal.

I agree I have been hunting too! Its really hard to keep the food I need around because It always gets frozen. Its great that you are still making an effort though.
ReplyDeleteI know how the hunting scene can really alter your eating. I can honestly say I would go a whole day without eating until later that night and, depending on the success of the day, fruits and veggies were not the first thing I'd grab to eat once I did. As long as you are trying and if you are fueling your body with things other than junk food is what matters.
ReplyDeleteI think if you buy plenty of fruits and veggies and make them available it will be easier for you to remember to eat them. Try to eat more fruit then meat on Thanksgiving! :)
