    I'm still working to clarify some of my actual fitness goals....but for now I would like to exercise at least 40 minutes 5 days a week.
    My main goal is to lose about 25 lbs by the beginning of June 2014.

  • Eat enough protein.

    My goals are to:

    1. Be under my calorie goals 6 days a week (I give myself one cheat meal every Saturday night to indulge a bit)
    2. Continue doing 45 min of zumba at least 4 days per week
    3. Lose these last 20 lbs by April 1st.
    4. Once back in shape, start working on baby #2 and stay healthy during this pregnancy (unlike last time!)
  • My goal for January is to keep track of my food for 6 days a week, I am giving myself a free pass to skip tracking once a week. NOT skip eating well, just skip putting it in here on what ever is the busy day that week! I also want to lose 3lbs this mth!

  • January Goals:
    This is my first month so my goal is to just stick with it!
    I am going to continue as if I wasn't on a diet, but log my exercise/calorie intake each and every day, and by the end of the month I will review it and make all necessary changes.
    There have been too many times where I start a diet, keep at it for a week, then give up because its either too restrictive or I don't see immediate results. But not this time.

    I'm a little late to the party... But my January goals:

    -Run entire 5K Jan. 1 (DONE)
    -Do some sort of activity for a minimum of 30 minutes everyday
    -More strength training

    SW 1/5/14: 179.2
    1/12/14: 176.4 (loss of 2.8 lbs)- still 0.8 lbs away from low weight in December.
    1/19/14:
    1/26/14:

    I am trying to focus less on the number on the scale and more on the way my body looks and feels. I am hoping to be in a size 10 jeans (currently a 12) before my birthday on March 17th. My UGW is somewhere in the range of 150-160, depending on how I feel and if I am comfortable with the necessary amount of calories and exercise to maintain that weight...

    Update:
    I have lost 3 lbs, I am drinking my water, I need to focus on at least getting in 10 minutes everyday of exercise--failing there. I have been doing active activities with the kids on the weekends. The beautiful weather we had last weekend really helped.
