I decided to try writing down my goals for the month to try to get out of this funk I've been in. My weight keeps yo-yoing because I'm not being consistent with my habits.
Goal #1 - Go Green
I want to hit my step goal every day. Not gonna lie.. this is gonna be tough. I think I'm gonna make this a two-part goal: the main goal will be "hit 70,000 steps each week," which would allow me a day of rest as long as I make up the steps on another day, and the secondary goal would be to hit my step goal every day. I don't want to set myself up for failure (because I remember how much my feet hurt when I did my one-week-go-green-challenge), but I also don't want to set the bar too low. I want to push myself. Hence, two-part goal.
Goal #2 - No Fast Food
This is for my health *and* for my wallet. I've been really really bad the last two months. Spent *waaaaaay* more than I should've on food. That has to stop. I actually had CFA for lunch today, so this one will go through October 1 to make up for today. Confession: I also had Krystal's for dinner. Sort of a last meal. I know, I'm pathetic, let's move on. I've decided that I can have CFA if I get grilled nuggets and fruit or a salad. No fries.
Goal #3 - Cut Down On Soda
Once again, I've been really bad here. I'd gotten down to 0-1 cokes per day for a while, but now I'm back up to 2-3. God, I'm so embarrassed. I can't even believe I'm typing this right now. But it's the truth. Setbacks happen. What matters now is how I move forward.
Goal #4 - Listers Gotta List
I'm going to take a few minutes each day to complete The Reset Girls' September list prompt-of-the-day. I'll be using one of my Maybooks to journal the prompt as well as anything else that I feel the need to write.
Goal #5 - Reach Goal Weight
I will get down to 194 by the end of the month. Fact. Period. The End.
Can you tell that I'm tired? The explanations for each goal got shorter and shorter. Honestly, the only reason I'm not already asleep is because my sheets are in the dryer. And I'm so tired that I'm seriously considering just sleeping on my mattress so that I don't have to get up, walk to the laundry room, come back, and make the bed (one of my LEAST favorite tasks, second only to cleaning to shower).
Also, an update on my Fundraising Challenge: thanks to Megan, I've gotten my first set of miles. I've completed 7.41 miles thus far (I'm only counting my workouts rather than my total distance per day) but will have cardio days coming up where I hope to make a bigger dent in the total distance.
Okay, I can't think straight anymore, so I think we'll just end it here. Peace out, girl scouts.
