I think I just have so much I want to do and so much I want to improve in my life.. that it is overwhelming. It is hard to have only 3 goals when I WANT a total life makeover!!
So just delete from your mind any previous goals I set for myself on this blog because I have changed my mind yet again! haha :D
The three goals I have chosen are to be fulfilled by May 2011 and I have broken them down into smaller parts.. and who knows .. I might just change my mind again!! hmph... I annoy myself!!! lol!!
The three goals I have chosen are:
1. Pay down some debt and live within my means
2. Become a vegetarian
3. Run 30 min straight
My three goals that are the short term versions of those:
1. do up a budget WITH Clint
2. Read from vegetarian/vegan books (6 pages a day at least)
3. 20 min strength work and 30 min walk, 3 times a week
I don't even know if running is realistic for me.. with the condition of my body right now.. but I really miss running so... I have to at least TRY!!
When I was in college/university, a very loved instructor was leaving us. She bought us all (her students) a small gift. It was a little token of her love. She also gave us cards with special, personalized messages just for us... Mine had the message that it is OK to change my mind. I am not sure exactly why she gave me this message, but I do remember it in times like these when it seems that all I do is change my mind!!
Me, as a runner about 10 years ago: (except for the one that is my kindergarten pic)
Me, now...
I was very tempted to just put a head shot, but it would defeat the purpose of WHY I was putting the picture there. I feel awful that I have let my body get so tired, sore and out of shape. It is a long road to health now...

hi, i like how you put your compleation for your goals for a long way off!
ReplyDeletehey, we all looose that nice shape we had before the kids came along!! i hadn't been concerened about the extra weight i puting on though till just recenly. Now i am like hey maybe its time iv'e did somthing about it! it seems so hard to excerzie though. Atleast for me. I had goals of bike riding a couple miles every other evening, but a week have gone by already since i last rode.
Thank you Mae :) My body is really bothering me... not only because of how it looks but because of how much it limits me and hurts me physically... it really interferes with my homemaking and parenting... so it is quite depressing! It is so hard to exercise the heavier I get which only makes me gain more weight!! It is a frustrating process!! Thanks so much for taking the time to read my blog :)
ReplyDeleteThose are great goals, Michelle. I've missed talking to you again. Good luck and I bet you do these. Keep them as your focus! You can do it.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog! I can delete all your previous goal you set but, I CANT delete those you have already accomplished! ( I can think of alot! )
ReplyDeleteYOU ARE BEAUTIFUL ! Then and and now:)
I love the goals you set ( the part with Clint part made me chuckle :) )
It is a long road to health now... A GREAT JOURNEY STARTS WITH ONE SMALL STEP!
Thanks so much for the kind comments LaDonna and Amy!!! I really appreciate them!!! :D
