Here are the goals that I set for myself a couple of months ago! I have come so far since then, and I feel I am a completely different person- inside and out. Here are the updates on how my goals have been coming along :]
Daily Goals:
UPDATE: I have lost 10.6 lbs, which means I have 10.4 more pounds to lose in about two weeks. While this is achievable, I don't know that it is realistic. We shall see!
- Workout 5-6 days a week (including resistance training 3 times per week)
Reward: After committing to it for 1 month- I join the Wisconsin Athletic Club :]
UPDATE: I have worked harder these past couple of months than ever before! I have a completely new found confidence in myself, because I am doing things I never thought I would be able to do. I am so proud of myself!- something that I haven't been in years. I haven't been completely on top of working out 5-6 days a week, but It is something that I am working towards being consistent with.
- Take the dogs for a daily walk.
Reward: Well behaved dogs! :]
UPDATE: I did a really good job with this goal in the beginning, however as it has been getting colder I have been slacking. Besides... the chihuahuas can't really endure much of any extreme weather- I need a stinkin' lab or something!
- Track & write down what I eat each day.
- No soda
Reward: Having teeth when I'm older :]
UPDATE: Going wonderfully!
- Blog each day about my weight loss journey!
Reward: My blogging friends inspirational comments & motivation!
UPDATE: Well.. I have done pretty well with this for the most part, other than my 2 weeks of being shamefully missing in action :( But I am back on track!
- Drink 6 8oz. glasses of water each day.
- Eat 5 servings a day of fruits/vegetables.
- Take a daily vitamin.
Short-Term Goals:
- Lose at a rate of 1 and a half - 2 pounds a week.
- Lose 20 lbs. by November 3rd, 2009
Reward: $50 Shopping spree (clothes) for every 20 lb. loss.
UPDATE: I have lost 10.6 lbs, which means I have 10.4 more pounds to lose in about two weeks. While this is achievable, I don't know that it is realistic. We shall see!
Long-Term Goals:
- Incorporate running into my daily workout routine.
- BE POSITIVE!
- Reach my goal weight of 155 lbs. by: April 14th, 2011 (my birthday)
Reward: I couldn't possibly think of a greater reward than reaching this goal! What a great gift it will be!
I hope everybody has a wonderful day! :]
I think I need to come and live with you! *laughs*

ReplyDeleteI think I need to do that more often to, especially the short term ones that are easier to reach. And therefor give you more self confidence. Need to think about them......they could bring back some enthusiasm and determination back into my life.
You set a good example for me. Thanks!
Congratulations! You've worked hard for these goals. Good job :)
ReplyDeleteOoo. The water thing. I do good, then I don't. It's a big 'ole cicle. Hate it! I need to do so much better. Ugh.
