This is my beginning of the year, before picture.
My goals this year are to tone my waist area, and lose 15 more lbs. I lost 23 lbs. last year, so if I just do what I did before, hopefully it won't be to hard. My goals for this month, are: Get in the habit of :
Drinking 64 oz. water a day
Eating atleast 1 fruit per day
1 serving of veggies a day
2 servings of protien a day

Dr. appt. for moles, and physical.
Dentist appt.

and 30 min. of exercise, any that will raise my energy more than my normal routine. At the end of January I will post my goal points and goals for Feb.

Setting Goals

Since we're setting goals for the new year I thought it might be good to read up on setting fitness goals and how to achieve them. Seems like a lot of people set goals and then never get to them. I'm finding that setting small achievable goals makes all the difference. You set a goal to lose 5 pounds it feels like you can get there. But set a goal to lose 35? Whoa. Way big goal. You may or may not get there. Here is an article that's really good about setting achievable goals. And here is one about figuring out what kind of goal to set and how to get there.

My Goals

My goals for the year are to continue doing what I have started in the last few months. Keeping up on the house, reading the scriptures daily - alone and with my kids, holding FHE, exercising, etc. As I see new needs new goals will be made.

I have gained back about 5 pounds over the holidays - not exercising will do that to you! I would like to get down to about 130 - about 30 pounds from where I am now. I'll do that by exercising and I have started eating every 2-3 hours. I've read that it's a really good way to help regulate your metabolism. I am also going to be going to a mostly vegetarian lifestyle. I'll eat meat occasionally but I'm going to try to do the vegetarian thing.

I am also wanting to get pregnant this year. I am trying to talk Mark into it right now. Wish me luck!

My goals....

Hey everyone! 

With the New Year and resolutions being made, I have decided that for me I am going to change the way I participate in our Club. Elisa and I talked about it a little and I liked it and made some changes for myself. First read this email I got in my work email:

I’ve felt compelled to share an epiphany that I had the other day.  I was in the shower (where a lot of my deep thinking occurs) contemplating the changes that I have gone through and the breakthroughs that I have made in the past year.  And I was intending to set a New Years resolution for the coming year.

 

I recalled that I had always felt that something was missing in my life, but like most of us, I didn’t know what it was.  I then reviewed the past year and realized that most of the progress in my spiritual development occurred after I had released and let go of something.  It may have been a belief, a past trauma, fear, forgiveness, or anything that was holding me back and keeping me from progressing; from raising my vibration to a higher level of love and understanding. 

 

So my epiphany was that there was never anything missing in my life, but that something had been in the way.  And when I let go of whatever it was, I had a clearer remembrance of who I really was – a spiritual being having a physical experience; an aspect of God exploring this physical realm.

 

 It was eye-opening for me as I grasped the concept of remembering – remembering the reason for this journey, rather than searching for that “magic” something that “must be missing”.  And I realized that the remembrance has always been within me, but that there was just a lot of junk in the way.

 

So my anti-New Year’s resolution is to not set a goal to add anything to my life, or try to find what’s missing, but to release whatever is in the way, and to let my inner wisdom flow naturally.  And I challenge you to do the same!

 

Whether you are family, a friend, a client, or someone that has attended one of my Emotional Freedom and Channeling workshops or retreats, I send you my love and best wishes for the New Year.  And I encourage each of you to focus on releasing whatever stands in the way of your happiness – because there is nothing missing in your life, but perhaps there is something in the way.

“Embrace the Mystery”

So with that being said, I am going to change my focus on my health and eating. It is going to decrease in a sense. Eating is a lifestyle, and I have heard and believe that if 80 - 90 percent of what you eat is healthy then the other 10 -20 percent doesn't matter. That is how I am going to base my points, and then also my exercising points each day. I am not going to write my food that I ate, but the goals I reached and whether I got my points. My focus will be on the things I am doing for my benefit and increasing them. Not on what I need to avoid. 

I am letting go of the thought pattern of everything needing to be 100% healthy or I fail

I am letting go of guilt for eating things that are less healthy for my body.

I am letting go of emotional eating

I am letting go of all the thought patterns that create guilt and feelings of low worth connected to my body and food.

I am letting go of and releasing every pattern of guilt and self sabotage

Here are my food and exercise habits for the month of January:

Good source of Protein in every meal

64 + ounces Water every day

A form of Vegetable with every dinner

Exercise 3 times every week

They say that if you can do something for 21 days, that it becomes a habit. So, my goals for each month will automatically roll over and be continued, I will just earn my points with new habits.

Baby???

Do we have a new baby yet??
