I'm not a big fan of resolutions. Resolutions are known to be made and then broken. When is the last time you made a New Years Resolutions and kept it? I've made a resolution to lose weight every year for the last 20 years (yes, since I was 8), and I'm still here. Still sitting at my highest weight, still haven't kept that resolution.
So this year - I'm saying screw the resolutions! I'm making goals. Attainable, quantifiable goals. Really, it's my to do list. And I will cross of every. single. entry.
Not all are related to weight loss - but here is my 2012 to-do list:
| fit into size 28 jeans |
| finish quilts |
| read 20 books |
| go up stairs without getting winded |
| fit into size 3x bathing suit from Wal-Mart |
| drink 130oz of water at least 6 days per week |
| no soda |
| lose at least 150lbs. |
| paint bedroom furniture white |
| look great everyday - put more effort into hair, makeup, etc. |
| plant a garden spot at Mom and Dad's |
| add 3 more veggies to my 'like' list |
| climb Kennesaw mountain at least 15 times |
| run for 10
minutes in a row Every month I will update you on my progress with each one! What are your goals for 2012? |

ReplyDeleteMJ - I love reading your goals!
ReplyDeleteMy goals is to work on not being so afraid all the time. Example: I can't go on hikes without worrying about the wildcat (that never shows up) who will attack me. I have unrealistic fears of things that just dont seem to come true - which means I'm putting a lot of effort into fear, that I could be putting into happiness and the "moment." It's something I'd like to get to the heart of so I can start living a happier life.
Best of luck in achieving your goals! Jodie
