It's a new month with new beginnings, a great way to start fresh. My goals are to incorporate more fish per week and try something new at the gym , like zumba.

    Get closer to my weight loss goal, and be able to comfortably run 10k by the end of the month. I can do five miles now, so adding another 1.2 shouldn't be hard.

    -reach my goal weight :) I am only about 3 pounds away! I have really slowed down/not been as careful the last couple weeks with exams going on. But now I have no excuse.
    - I want to attend at least 4 classes at my gym in the month of may.
    -Be able to run 5K. Did 2.5 today as of May 1st so I think this is achievable. Then in June I will work on cutting down the time. (Ps anyone know a reasonable 5K run time?I did my 2.5 in 25 mins today)

    Funny you should ask since I was thinking about this today.

    My goals for May are

    workout at least 5 days a week,
    drink more water 100oz a day,
    no late night eating,
    lose 10lbs in May

    not to beat myself up if I don't meet all my goals.

    :happy:

    Drink more water... every day.. week days are easy, but I never get enough water on weekends!
    Eat better. I'm pretty good at sticking to my calories but a lot of those end up being junk food.
    Get more iron! I have a bit of an iron deficiency & I struggle to get enough iron when I'm dieting.
    Lose 5-10 pounds.
    Work out at least 5 days a week.

    Well. I want to at least maintain my weight. I hit my goal weight and after soul searching have decided I think I'm comfortable here. So, now I want to learn how to maintain it.

    I want to try and up gym time. I am recovering from a fall on the ice that resulted in a bulging disc in my lower spine. I've been TRYING to build back up to where I was pre-fall at the gym. It's a slooow road. I want to try and get my mile UNDER 10 mins!

    Oh and to drink more water - everyday. No excuses. I know I need more water.

    I'd like to try eating more "whole" foods & less processed junk foods--even the sugar free variety. I'm going to be switching antidepressants to one that should make my weight loss a little bit easier, so we'll see...Hope to lose 8-10 pounds in May. No more Splenda in my diet (doctor agreed can cause more sugar cravings!) & bought some agave nectar to try in hot oatmeal, etc. More fruits & veggies in my diet & hope to continue with the exercise (if my hip will cooperate).
