Goals of the Week: December 5


That's right, it's the start of another week, so it's time to set some new goals. But first, let's review last week's GOTW.

As a refresher, last week's goals were:
  • Exercise five times, 45 minutes each.
  • Run three times.
  • Drink at least three liters of water a day.


And we could put a big ol' checkmark next to each of them.  I exercised five times, ran (or attempted, at least) three times and drank more than 3 liters of water each day.  This week, I aim to continue each of these.

However, I need to progress and set some new goals for this week.  So here's what I'm working toward this week:
1) Stick within my calorie budget, as determined by my Loseit.com profile, each day (including Friday and Saturday?!?).
I started faithfully logging calories last week, but went over my budget most days.  


2) Add in two strength training workouts this week. I have not done any resistance training since I completed the Mud Run in mid-October, and friends that is shameful.  I can feel myself going flabby all over.  I haven't yet decided what to do in the weight room, but it might be one of these options that I found on Pinterest last night.
This looks a little intense. So maybe I will start with something a little simpler like the squats, pushups, planks, lunges and rows below? Not sure yet, but do something, I will.





What are your goals this week?  They say the first step to accomplishing goals is to figure out what they are and then write them down.  What are you waiting for?

  1. My main goal this week is to rest a lot (because we are all very sick) so I can be the best mom and wife I can be for my family.

    My second main goal is to finish the knitting portion of the blanket I am knitting for Bryan's aunt. It is so exciting/fulfilling to be potentially completing my first big knitting project!

    Lastly, I would like to more consciously focus on my friendship with Jesus--this is huge, but something I have been convicted of in a new and beautiful way lately.

    Praying for you! Thanks for sharing! LOVE!
