My goal it to set a challenge each week until the New year gets here. If I have accomplished and completed over half of those challenges, i will reward my self with a BIG reward for the new year! Let the countdown begin! Happy Monday everyone!

    I agree, Breezey! I want to, too! Lets make it a goal for us all!

    I want to lose 5 pounds before the start of 2012!

    What are your goals?

    You need to set doable challenges and aim to complete them ALL and reward yourself only if you can complete them ALL. If you aim to only complete half of them when you get to one that is a little tough you will tell yourself you don't have to do it because you only wanted to complete HALF the challenges you set for yourself.

    Examples:
    1,000 jumping jacks in 1 week
    Stay under your calorie goal for 1 full week
    Walk 30 minutes every day for 1 week
    No fast food for 1 week
  • ugh!!! That is only like 8-16 pounds.....if I am "lucky". Think that just motivated me to fill up a water bottle and go for a walk!
  • I agree I think that you should only reward yourself if you complete ALL of the goals you set forth. She used great examples of things that CAN be accomplished and would really help you on your weight loss journey. I think setting goals and rewarding yourself is a great idea!!!!! Good luck on reaching your goal :) I think I will do the same thing. Soooo much can be accomplished in 8 weeks!!!!!
