I am setting new goals for myself. Realistic goals. For most of my professional career I have been driven to meet demanding goals, as a result I often set similar goals in my personal life. It is too hard to have demanding professional and personal goals. Let's be honest, I have a 2 year old, we are building a house, I work full time outside of the home, I like to have my time, and I would still like to have time with my husband. Life is meant to be enjoyed.
Therefore, I have set some new goals for myself.
1. Run a 5k by July 15th (I have attended and will continue to attend a training class at Metro).
2. Get to a healthy BMI range by 10/11/12 (our 4 year anniversary) which means 28lb weight loss.
3. Eat 3 servings of fruit/veggies everyday.
Hopefully, by making something a little more attainable I will have success. The thought of having another baby scares the hell out of me. No way am I physically ready, mentally I suppose I am getting there. I love the kiddo, but I vividly remember the swelling, carpal tunnel, and diabetes. Next time, I will be better prepared.
Have a safe, happy holiday!

50lbs to go
I am about half way through my weightloss journey. When I write it that way it doesn't seem too bad. When I think about 50 individual pounds it makes me want to grab the nearest ice cream treat. Many people have told me not to worry about because of our living situation it is going to be tough to lose weight. Granted-I agree, living in a one bedroom apartment with a husband and toddler is not the easiest thing to do, but no more excuses. So, starting Monday (yes, I know that is what all dieters say), I am going to get hard corse about the weight loss and do a Reboot. Yes, a Reboot. I am dropping meat, dairy, and sugar....for at least 10 days. Wish me luck.
