Gotta have a Goal!

It's so much easier to stay motivated when there is a goal, or even many goals. Through out all the challenges I've faced, I've found that I need many goals.  I need both long term and short term goals to keep me going.  So what are some of my goals???

Let's be honest, while the big picture is to be healthy, its so much easier to gauge with a number, something factual!  I choose to use the scale as my guide.  At my heaviest I was 335, I'm happy to say I don't weigh that much now, but I'm not down a lot.  According to all those charts at the doctors office, I should weigh around 160-150 but seriously my ultimate goal is 180s.  I have a long way to go!  So of course to keep on the right path, I have set mini goals.

Here is my mini goal list!

• First 36(below 300 will feel so good)

• First 50(I get to purchase a shirt from the gym)

• Be able to buy clothes at any store(no more plus size stores!)

• Run the entire 5k in town (first weekend of August)

It's small but definitely gives me the drive to keep trying!

You haven't failed until you quit trying!
