Yesterday was another super productive Sunday. We woke up early, walked the dogs, started a brisket in the crock pot, started the laundry, then went on a challenging 7 mile hike. On the way home, we did the grocery shopping. Then, I finished the laundry, swapped out the winter bedding for the summer bedding, cleaned the kitchen while my husband cleaned the bathroom, and prepped our Easter dinner: brisket, mashed cauliflower, and gravy from the crock pot vegetables. I also made my lunch for today. I went over my calories and did not drink enough water, but I kept my calories keto friendly. I'm sure my weight will be a little up/down until my water is re-balanced.
Today I am up at 4:00, drinking coffee and preparing for the gym. But, as I type this, I realize my body has not had a day off in over 2 weeks. So, I'm going to take the morning off from the gym, maybe go later or just condense my gym days the rest of the week. TBD.

Before I set my goals Sprint 3, I need to review my goals for Sprint 2.
I have managed to lift weights 5x a week. I have done zero yoga. I have struggled with the running schedule, but have been running more frequently the last 2 weeks. We started hiking on the weekends - 3 weekends in a row, which I prefer over running. I had more time during Sprint 1 when I wasn't working, so I think I need to be more realistic about my time and if I want to mix it up, the weightlifting schedule needs to be condensed in order to accommodate running and yoga and hiking.
I am still keto and love it. I increased my calories. No weight gain, but I am starting to see good definition in my muscles. I am good with drinking my water. I was drinking a glass of wine a few times on weekdays earlier in the Sprint, but the last 2 weeks I have been drinking wine only on the weekends.
Met with my mentor and came up with a business plan. Completed my paperwork with NM and received my Letter of Good Standing. Did not re-launch my blog or social media stuff. Did not get business cards. I started my new job! I still work there!
Nope. Did not do.
Sold my house! Scared of the Denver housing market. Have been cleaning the kitchen pretty consistently after dinner. I even added cleaning up the bathroom. Started an at-home date night, easily my favorite day of the week! Have only decluttered a couple of times, but did go through half the boxes those 2 nights. Once the weather is warm, we'll start again because I know we have some seasonal stuff in there.
