So I have a friend that gives each year a theme. Last year her theme was "The Year of Us" and she focused that year on her relationship with her husband. She planned special things throughout the year for the two of them, and just spent a lot of time concentrating on growing their relationship.
So in thinking about this idea, I decided to name this year "The Year of Me". I thought it was apropos considering my plan to focus on my health and personal growth in 2013. As I mentioned, I made a list of my goals for the year....
In 2013 I will....
~ Inundate myself with fitness/health information and motivation
*websites, articles, facebook pages, etc.
~ Focus on the green foods. Make friends with veggies. Lots of them.
~ Step up the exercise. Talk with Jami and Aaron about off day plans.
~ Use NOOM to track food and exercise daily. Follow their daily goals and use their information. (More on Noom later;)
~ Take accountability pictures often. At least once a week.
~ Weigh in once a week.
~ Grow nails out and paint them more often.
~ Do hair and makeup more often.
~ Read these goals everyday.
~ Be under 220 lbs. by Valentines Day. That is about 10 lbs. in less than 7 weeks. Equates to about 1.5 lbs. a week.
*if goal is reached: buy a new outfit for Valentines Day!
~ Be under 200 lbs. by Chicago trip the end of June. That is about 30 lbs. in a little less than 7 months. Equates to about 1 lb. a week.
*if goal is reached:
~buy new clothes for the trip!
~mani/pedi/eyebrows/massage before the trip!
~ Be under 161 by my 33rd birthday in September. That is about 70 lbs. in 8.5 months. Equates to a little less than 2 lbs. a week. This is a BIG goal for me....because when I reach 161 it will be exactly 100 pounds lost. I am so excited for this! It's a big goal but a totally reasonable one being that it is almost 9 months away.
*if (WHEN!) goal is reached: BIG PARTY!!!!
BONUS GOAL:
~ Be at or under 150 by our vacation in December. That is a little over 1.5 lbs. a week. Totally possible!!!
So there you have it! I am excited, hopeful, motivated and committed.
