Since my financial diet/overhaul has been going so good lately I am hoping to do the same with myself. I need to get back to overhauling my daily living and the process there of.

I weigh'd myself this morning and I was back up to 278! Unacceptable!!!! So I'm putting myself on a kind of diet as well...little percentages and goals at a time!

My first goal is 5% which is 13.9 pounds so we'll just call it 14 pounds...which would bring me down to 264 which is where I was this winter...if I were to do 10% it would be 27.8 so we'll call it 28...but I think that would be too big of a goal for me right now...let's face it ... I'm trying to be honest with myself so once I hit my 14 pounds I'll then target my next 14 pounds and be down to 250 which will make my doc happy that I've gotten down 10% and then start the process over again...I know that it's not going to happen overnight. I'd be stupid to think it would but I can at least give it my best everyday. The weather is perfect out and I have many resources at my fingertips to use...


So first goal is 14 pounds! Starting today 8/21/2008. I've had my LAST sweet tea which is going to make me cry but is doing nothing for my body so it's back to water and hard work I go...

My goal is to reach that 14 pound loss by October 1st. That is about 5 weeks and so it's about 2.5 pounds a week. I know that the national average is one pound a week is good but this is the beginning so it will hopefully come off quicker.......HOPEFULLY. I'll be weigh'ing myself on Thursday mornings to hopefully have my targets reached...
