Goals

Posted September 23, 2008

I have set out some long-term goals, and I know I’ll be more successful if I record them here. My main focus will still be my exercise goal but I know that having weight goals will help me stay focused w/my eating.

Current weight: 247.5

12/31/08         225

3/31/09           200

6/30/09           175

9/30/09           150 (this happens to be my anniversary, what a great celebration that would be to hit my goal weight by my anniversary)

Also, regarding the pretzel from yesterday, I just want to let everyone know that it was a whole-wheat pretzel. Still not the healthiest option, but better than the ones you get at the mall.

Tonight I’m going to skip the gym b/c my son’s open house at school is tonight and I don’t want to have to shower before we go. But I am going to do a pilates/yoga DVD and then play w/my son. I’ll post more after I do the workout. Oh, I’m also proud to say that I resisted the pie!!!!! If my hubby doesn’t eat the rest today I’m throwing it in the garbage :)

8:00

I did the pilates/yoga DVD and then took my son to a football and volleyball game at our school.  It was fun to spend time w/him, but of course he got mad when we had to leave and hauled off and hit me.  Nice.  Nothing is more fun than being assaulted by your child in front of your students :)

On a good front we found out our son is well ahead of his grade in reading.  We had open house tonight and his teacher pulled me aside and asked if it was ok to test him for reading.  Even though I know he reads well, I still panicked b/c I was afraid that he was lacking somehow.  But she said that he is not going to learn anything new being w/her for reading and she would like him to stay challenged.  I’m so glad he loves school, it’s one less obstacle to fight.

The pie was gone and I also resisted cookies at the open house.  I know this rock-solid willpower is going to go away sometime, but I’m going to enjoy it while it lasts.

Progress toward workout goal:  60/250

    I think you’ll have no problem making your goals, especially if you keep them in your face by updating them here every once in a while.
