1. Walk at least 500 miles this year (335 down and 165 to go)
I only got around to walking 8 miles last week, but I am going to try to get in a few extra miles this week to keep on track for the year.
2. Eat low carb each day
I did this every day this week! Low carb tip: My husband stays on track better if I have a lot of leftovers for him to choose from. One way I do this is to cook extra meat every time I grill, which makes a quick meal possible any time of day. I also try to make sure his favorite fat bombs are in the freezer each week to satisfy his sweet tooth and I always have backup blocks of cheese in my fridge at all times. (Cheese shortage is a serious situation in my house)

7. Try to buy nothing new this year
I did technically buy two new items this past week, but since they were wedding presents, they do not count against me…you got to love loopholes 🙂
8. Add six new products to my Teachers pay Teachers store (4 down and 2 to go)
I have not added any new products in two months!! So I really need to get busy…
9. $5 Weekly Challenge
This month I am buying things to donate to a local charity that provides clothing and hygiene items to school children in our county. Apparently they were low on deodorants, so I grabbed five at Kroger while they were on sale for $.99 each. Sometimes life works out nicely!
