Well, maybe not.
Before I started my workout, I weighed myself. 146 lbs. While this may not seem like a lot to some of you, it is to me. This is the most I have ever weighed. According to this ideal weight tracker, my ideal weight it 134 with a healthy range of 119-149. I'm just FOUR pounds from being outside of my recommended weight range. Now again, this may seem like no big deal to some people but the fact that I have gained probably 20 pounds in the last 3 years is scary to me. Not to mention I was 138 less than 1 year ago. I do not want to continue that trend.
So now it's time to make some goals :
- 1st check-point : 140 (I will reward myself for hitting each check-point with some new work out apparel)
- 2nd check-point : 130
- Goal weight : 125 (Haven't decided this reward yet....ideas?)
I have never been able to wear skirts like this because of my body shape (aka - I have love handles). So this is a huge personal goal for me.
- I want to work out at least 3 days a week, even where there are a million reasons not to.
- When it gets warmer, I want to try stand-up paddle boarding
- Most importantly, I want to keep myself motivated. I want to change my lifestyle and I want to be happy with my body.

Those are great goals! I would suggest either a shopping splurge as the reward or a weekend getaway! My biggest challenge is finding rewards that are not food based.
ReplyDeleteJust used the ideal weight tool and realized I am 46 lbs over my recommended range. Seeing that number is reminding me that I have some work of my own to do too
