    Lose 6 to 7lbs. Continue increasing my walking distance or shorten the time. Incorporate Tae Bo a couple times a week.

    1. I really want to be disciplined with my eating, which means I have to be more organised. Always leaving things until the last minute means I eat on the run a lot.

    2. Determined to use the gym 3 x per week, with a bonus 2 x 4 days in a row when my husband is home, plus daily cardio regardless of what's going on.

    3. I am doing a 5km fun run to raise funds for my 2 year old daughter's Palliative Care support group on the 26th of August, and starting Michelle Bridges 12BT on the 27th, and want to be in good habits for that. Anyone that wants to can check out our story and maybe help raise funds - the link is http://www.everydayhero.com.au/wilmarie_craig. Absolutely no need to donate - it is just nice to know about each other, and if our story can help encourage others in the same situation and get awareness out there, then that is fantastic. If you are local to the Sunshine Coast, Australia, and reading this, then maybe you should make the run part of your August goal and come and join me!!

    4. Also, I have struggled to get back into the 60kg bracket since March, and would love to drop below 70kg this month. It has been such a barrier (mentally, I think, as well as physically), that it would be great to have that behind me.

    1. Go from 20 to at least 30 proper push-ups per set.
    2. Eat breakfast everyday. Or drink it.
    3. Eat more veggies. I am terrible about this and this is my "start incorporating veggies in every meal" month.

    I aim to increase my vertical jump by atleast 5cm (standing jump) in 3 weeks. As well as that, adding more power (to my legs/core/arms) to control my hits (as I play volleyball)

    With the added height to my vertical and the strength gained in my legs, core and arms, here's hoping for a good result :)

    10 more pounds by Labor day. It is a bit aggresive, but its a goal to shoot for.
