2008 Fitness and Weight Loss Goals
December 31, 2007 by Paula
Filed under 2008 Goals
In 2008, I will focus on 2 main areas – Financial (which includes personal business goals) and Physical (weight loss/fitness/health). My intention is to put the same kind of energy/focus into my financial/business goals as I did my physical goals in 2007 – which was very successful! I will continue to move forward with my physical goals as well, but this is an area that I feel very confident in and have developed very good habits around. (can be somewhat an autopilot now )
Physical:
- To weigh 133 lbs or less by Jan. 1, 2009 (this will be 60 lb loss for 2008, 145 lb total loss)
- To continue with my varied and consistent exercise of walking, biking, strength training, ab work and pilates
- To add different exercise - running, swimming, more leg work - lunges, squats, step, stairs, etc
- To possibly take a karate or martial arts type class - look into this
WooHoo! Rock-n-Roll in 2008 - the projected year of completion for my weight loss goal!
