The funny thing about goals is that I think about them constantly and how I’m going to keep them in sight, yet I always let they sit on the way side.
…. Cue a tumblr to keep my goals in sight and to stop putting my health second to everything else going on in my life. Plus, every fitspo site I have come to find has been so motivational.
So here is a list of my goals.
1. Get back to being healthy and lose the weight I’ve been dying to get rid of since I was 17 … I refuse to turn 20 in the spring with this extra weight. Ideally, I want to lose forty pounds in five months (aka tomorrow). But in reality, I’ll settle for thirty in five months.
2. Start to get rid of all the junk food in my life, literally and figuratively. There’s a few things/people I want to … throw out at the moment because they’re plaguing my life and bringing me down, one of which is the bag of m&m’s under my bed. Now who wants that? Not this girl.
3. I want to run again. Used to play field hockey and ran for fun. Where that girl went, I’m not sure, but I hope she comes back soon. She had a rockin’ bod and loved every jog she took. By the fall of 2012, I want to be able to run 8 miles. One mile a month. I think it’s attainable.
4. Eating a raw diet. I grew up in a household where my mother only fed me veggies and fruit as a child because I would beg her to so dearly. (I had tantrums if we didn’t have kiwis in the house… I was a brat). I want to go back to that, because I had energy for days as a kid. No wonder. I bought (treated!) myself to the Tone It Up! Diet Plan and it’s marvelous. I love those girls - they’re marvelous.
5. Coffee addiction … it’s gonna go. First off, I have white teeth that I’m proud of. Coffee is totally not helping that. But the real reason is that I am 1000002% addicted to caffeine. I cannot wake up in the morning with out it. I get migraines if I don’t drink it in the morning. I also get pissed off, which is not okay.
6. I want a 4.0. Totally not health related, but damnit, I really want that badly. I’m in a ridiculously hard major and this is kind of a leap, but like I said, I really want it and know I can do it. Therefore, I’m going to do it.
7. I want a new wardrobe too :). I’m addicted to clothes, but in a healthy way, I promise. So if I lose this weight, I hope to have a beautiful new wardrobe by the summer. And I love summer clothes <3
