Realistic goals

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!
