My health goals!

June 19, 2009 by Amy 3 Comments

I’ve been lightly treading the waters of embracing my diet/fitness fully since the wedding. I’m back to watching what I eat, but sometimes I splurge all too much! I used to be so much more determined. I need my willpower back, and I’m hoping the accountability of this blog entry plus whoever reads this (yoohoo! anyone? bueller?) will keep me going.

Right now, I *grumble* am flirting with 250 lbs.

By the end of the summer (end of August), I WILL be in the 230s.
By Thanksgiving, I WILL be in the 210s.
By New Years, I WILL be in ONEDERLAND (that’s weight with a 1 in front of the two other numbers, not a 2)
By my 26th birthday, I WILL be in the 180s.
By summer 2010, I WILL be at GOAL! (170 lbs.)

Those are my health goals and PLEDGE to myself and to you guys! I will get healthier and blog about my triumphs, falls, whatever happens. I know it won’t be easy, but my health is worth it!

I will be giving myself some great rewards for reaching these goals too…

Reaching end of summer goalĀ  — Lowlights/Highlights to darken hair up
Reaching Thanksgiving goal — new dSLR camera!
Reaching New Year’s goal — a (tiny) shopping spree for new clothes
Reaching 26th bday goal — an iPhone…oh I want one SO bad!
Reaching GOAL — Lifetime of health and who knows!

Oh and to help someone else out with their health goals, go to 344 Pounds blog. He is asking for readers to give him a killer workout!

    Those are fantastic goals! MH and I were eating healthy/working out up until a a couple weeks ago and I was finally starting to see results. I have about 70+ pounds to lose and it hasn’t been easy but it’s been rewarding. Good luck!

    Great goals! I love the rewards too! I made a reward chart for my exercise, and after so many days, I earn a new clothing item. Right now, I’m in a 50 day stretch to purchase a new dress!

    […] issue? I want to lose most of my weight before I buy it. No, I don’t think I’ll squish it at my current weight, but I want to have a reward for […]
