The Goals Have Arrived


Today I realized that I’m starting to fall back a little. I said I’d make up a list of goals and rewards and I never actually did. So I’m doing it…right now.

First goal is to lose five pounds because I’ve been stuck fluctuation between 245 and 250 for way too long and I’d like to see it go below that. And my reward will be something big because I think these five will be a bit of a struggle. I think I will buy myself a new pair of jeans. Nice ones. (hopefully in a size 14 like the last ones I bought)

To lose the five pounds I’m going to stop with the junk food, start with the exercise, more specifically no more chocolate and chips and pop and walking three times a week.

If that doesn’t work I’ll ramp up my exercise to walk five times a week plus muscle work twice a week.

Second goal is to get to 230 (omg I can’t wait!). This will be a smaller reward…something I want. I think I’ll buy myself a new book (book nerd) something I’ve wanted for a long time…oh that Nightmares and Fairytales by Serena Valentino and FSc that I’ve wanted for years! I guess that’s a bit of a big reward but it’s a cheaper one.

After that I think I’ll make a goal of another ten pounds bringing me to 220. By then I’m thinking it’ll be summer, so maybe I’ll buy myself a nice summer dress.



I think that’s good for now.

What are your goals?

My goal is to go from 250 - 270 (I don't have a scale but I tend to fluctuate around that area) to at least 200 within the next year.

I'd actually be pretty happy just at 200 I think. I've NEVER been thin so I think I'll always be happy with a little bit extra on me.

Being all recently engaged up I want to wear a pretty summer dress for the reception that we're planning.

I always say to myself everyday that I'll eat healthy and try hard but I've never had a real motivation to do it. Once I had a friend that hounded me about it and would berate me if I slipped off my diet and I did lose a bunch of weight, but that didn't last. That's an awful way to lose weight, letting a friend a tell you you suck for not doing it. That was a bad idea.

P.S. If you don't know guacamole and hummus are great for weight loss and they don't break the bank on you.
