PLANS FOR 2010
My plans are simple really!
FUN! FAT! FIT!
So here they are:
FUN!
I am focused on having FUN this year!
Fun with things I like to do! FUN with things my family likes to do! FUN in everything we do! We are a very busy family, with work, volunteering, school, sports, etc. We are always on the go! We get so caught up in everything we need to get done that I think we forget why we are doing it! This year is about slowing down just long enough to enjoy what we do!
2010 = JUST SMILE AND HAVE FUN!
FAT!
Short term fat goal - to be back at 185lbs! Re-lose the weight I just gained.
Long term fat goal - 150lbs!
How do I get there?
~Eating clean and colorful!
What does this mean? Well to me it means getting back to eating real food, like - more fruit and vegetables (colorful), and less processed foods (white)!
~Drinking more water and cutting out soda!
~Trying something new every month!
a new vegetable, a new piece of fruit, a new healthy recipe
~Limit the SUGAR! (Did I mention that I love ice cream?)
Significantly reduce the sugar in my diet! Good bye cookies, good bye Starbucks pastries (which I did not have this morning), good bye BIG bowl of ice cream.
The first few weeks I am going to cut out sugar as much as possible to reduce the cravings! Then add it back in, in small doses (small scoops of ice cream)!
~Food Journal!
It helped me so much to write down what I was eating!
FIT!
Back to running and working out consistently!
~ run 600 miles this year!
I run with Nike+ (which I LOVE!) and want to be well into the BLUE section this fall! Just under 400 miles to get there!
I see lots of bloggers that have a goal of 1000 miles which I would love to achieve but want to be realistic! If I blow past 600 miles this year - look out 1000!
~HALF MARATHON - not 1 but 2 this year! One Spring, one Fall!
Research almost complete on which ones I am going to do! (Will post soon!)
~Cross Train! Running alone is not enough for me. I am going to add back in weight training twice a week. I am also going to try something new each month! Our new home gym is the perfect place to try new work out video or try a new program that I find in a magazine!
SIMPLE REALLY!!
FUN! FAT! FIT!
Those sound like great goals! I would love to try to do 2 halves this year. I need to get better about the soda. I am a sodaholic :-) I am working on it though!!
ReplyDeleteWhat half marathons are you doing this year? That is exciting.
ReplyDeleteTwo great books for weights: "The New Rules of Lifting for Women" and "Power to the People" by Pavel. Also, kettlebells are awesome. The kettlebell goddess dvd is a very good workout program.
Hey, we are the same age and close to the same weight...and it sounds like we might live in a similar region. Fun. Let's cheer each other on. :) How tall are you?
These are great goals. So glad you joined the Pay It Forward 500 + mile club!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a GREAT plan! I'm also glad you joined the Pay it Forward 500+ Mile Club... we'll have an awesome year running together! Looking forward to getting to know you. :-)
