New Goals!
I’m pretty happy with how February turned out with my goals. I’m going to keep the momentum going and state my goals for my next cycle. One thing I realized at the end of last year was that a Year was way too long of a time-span for goals for me. After this past month, I think I can say the same about a calender month. I’m going to try week-length goals for a little while and see how they fit.
Another thing about February was that I specifically didn’t have any health, weight or fitness goals. That was by design. I’ve set and failed at those goals so many times that I wanted to get a few wins under my belt before trying them out. This week however, I’m going to focus on almost nothing but!
Here, then, is my list for the week of 3/1 – 3/7:
- Lose 3 lbs
- 100 Pushups
- 60 minutes of cardio
- 7 new pictures posted
- Save $50 for Danika’s post-highschool fund
And here is the picture for my phone:

I’m joining you (for this week at least) amigo :)

I like the “bite-sized” nature of these goals. They do seem doable, which is a welcome feeling. IMHO, 3 pounds in a week is a little high, but at the beginning of weight loss, larger numbers like that are more realistic.
Nice. How do you eat Rosie O’Donnell out? One bite at a time!!! Good strategy.
Nice, dude! Do you have an update on the weight loss for this week so far? I like the ‘baby-steps’ approach. Small achievable goals can definitely be great for building motivation.
