Goals

Two blog posts in one day!  Wow...I am on a roll :)

I thought that it would probably be a good idea to put what my goals are so I can look back to them when I feel discouraged.

LONG TERM GOAL:
***Get to 120 pounds by December 3, 2012***

SHORT TERM GOALS:
1. Get below 200 pounds!  I have already decided that I want to cut my hair really bad but I will not allow to cut my hair until I get under 200 pounds...so hopefully soon there will be a post about my new hair cut!  To be completed by April 2012

2. Get to a size 12/14 by Benjamin's 4th Birthday (May 26, 2012)

3. Complete the Couch to 5K program by May 2012

4. Get to 175 pounds by Hannah's 5th Birthday (July 7, 2012)

5. Get to 155 pounds by the time Hannah starts Kindergarten (September 2012)

I know there will be more goals as I progress but this is a good start for now.  If you have any ideas on short term goals I am all ears!

  2. I think you are beautiful exactly how you are:) I have been using the My Fitness Pal app on my phone. That is helpful for recording:)

  3. These are great goals! I HIGHLY recommend the "Couch to 5K" program. I also think putting it out there is the best way to hold yourself accountable.

  4. I recommend using a food tracker/calorie montior. Nothing like being aware of what you are putting in your mouth knowing you are going to have to record it (the last serving of rice that no one ate at dinner, but you don't want to throw it away or deal with putting it in a container for some other time:)....I use Anytime Health. Here is a way you can enjoy free access for a year: AnytimeHealth.com ~ click "sign up Now" ~ select "Premium" and enter code WOS2012 (short for Working Out Sucks 2012) Lots of tools & useful information.

  5. If you ever need a fitness buddy I am hoping to get a YMCA membership soon and would love to have another mom who is working to lose weight.
