We make them. We break them. Why bother? is the feeling from so many. I make them because it motivates me. I am goal driven. I make goals whether it is the first week of January or the middle of September. I want to be a better version of myself, and having a vision of what that looks like is helpful. So this is my wieght oriented list - my hope for myself in the months ahead.
1.) No more diet Coke. (it hurts just writing that). Great article on this topic:
2.) No more snacks in our house that are white sugar/white flour based. We are striving for fruit as a morning snack and veggies in the afternoon. Kids have been informed, now I just have to stick to it. Afterall, I am the keeper of the food. I decided what enters our sacred kitchen and what stays out.
3.) Have a garden this spring/summer that the kids and I can plan and cultivate together.
4.) Take a walk everyday. Snow boots and hat in the winter, umbrella and rubber boots in the spring. Just get out and walk.
5.) Start riding my bike again. It's been abotu 30 years since I have been a bicycle. My husband loves to cycle. And now my kids are riding too. I can either get back on the bike or watch them ride away from me. I'd like to join the party.
Five is a good number. I have some other goals relating to career and relationships. But I want to keep these five health goals in front of me regularly. I'll keep you posted, as always.
What are your goals? Leave a comment and tell me of a change you are hoping to make this year.
