I'm guessing that goals and progress goes here.
I have quite a few goals for the next 6 months.
Goal one is to eat healthier. Over the last couple of years I have had serious insomnia, tiredness, and mild depression. From tracking what I eat, we've figured out it was my poor diet. This goal is one that I am doing ok on. A little over a year ago, I drank about a glass of water a year, as I hate water. I ate lots of sugar and lots of bread. I would eat 2 to 3 candy bars a day with a bag of chips. Over the last year, I have been drinking water on an almost daily basis. Sometimes I forget to fill my water bottle up at work. I've also been eating more salads instead of fast food. I have been working my way towards cutting out fast food all together and I'm now down to one meal a week. I've also reduced candy bar intake to one every week or two. So, my diet is a definite improvement.
Goal two is to firm up. I'm doing terrible on this goal. I stick to a workout plan for about 3 workouts and then I try something new. I know that you have t stick to a routine for a while to see if it will work for you. Today I bought a workout log and it has a spot for goals each week. Since I've noticed that my diet was a gradual process, I intend on gradually increasing workouts each week.
Goal three is to build some stamina. I get tired really easy and am ready to sit after about 5 minutes of cardio exercises. I'd like to be able to play a game of tennis without taking more breaks than I actually play for. As with my strength building goal, I am going to gradually build up the exercises each week. I hope to be at 2 hours a week of cardio activity a week or be able to do 30 minutes or more of medium intensity cardio 3 times a week. This goal I am unsure of if it is too easy or not. I've never had much stamina.
I'll let you know how my progress goes. Tomorrow is supposed to be a strength training day.
