OCTOBER 1st!! Monthly Goals

It's a new month, and a new outlook for me. September was not successful at all. I started out good, and ended with a 2 pound gain. Not at all what I was going for.

I weighed in today, and it was a gain, 4 oz I believe, maybe 6. I don't remember what my weight was exactly last weigh in so I will have to look back and see.

I'm babysitting my niece today. She finally took a nap, so I was able to sit down and do a few things. I know I got at least 24 more minutes to get things done...lol she's a 30 minute napper but she's a good girl. Just a little crabby when she gets tired.

It's a new month, and this month I am looking for RESULTS. That means OVERALL.-- and when I say overall, I mean continuing with good grades in school, continuing to get my life organized, and EXERCISE. I need to get moving. I read in a book, that diet/weight loss is 80% diet, 20% exercise- I don't know. I've read so many different things, that I don't know anymore. I have to find what works best for me. I know it's definitely a combination of what I eat and drink, and moving my butt!!

October Goals:

1. Commit to working out 15 days this month.

2. Drink eight- 8oz glasses of water a day.

3. Monitor Portion sizes. 

4. Cut back on splenda, and diet drinks.

5. Lose 5 pounds (1 pound a week)

To me, these are major goals that I need to work on. I am going to keep a notebook with me, and write down everything I eat. Even if it's just a bite. I'm going to see what I'm doing and see where I'm going wrong. I can't sit back, and do nothing. I have to make changes, and go about this properly. No more starving myself- I have to eat, just make better choices. 

Hope everyone has a good October!!

  1. Hey babe, glad to see that you are still at it, journaling and weight monitoring!

    School have been getting to me but fortunately you were up in my dash and I am glad to see you!!

    Major goals are major goals when you make them to yourself. I am going to take a picture at work and post it because I am going to revive my other blog and talk about fitness!

    I want to lose 20lbs by the end of the year. I am going to track myself by posting photos and blogging about working out... stay strong and if you need to talk, hit me up!!
