Week One Goals!

Week 1 of Ready For Summer Challenge!

It's a little weird cos I'm actually in the middle of Week 2 of my own program.

But basically, my deal is, I came to a realisation, I need to do something about this, something actually motivated and really working hard to achieve it, not just turning down dessert now and then and walking the dogs, with occasional gym visits.

This came from the realisation that I am overweight and I hate it. Well I knew that I hated it, but i didn't know I was overweight. Though it was fucking obvious just my looking in the mirror. Urgh. I jsut thought I was bigger than average but still in normal range. So Friday before last I wrote out my list of goals and restrictions and 'must do's' in my diary and have been working to stick with them in the week and a half since. It's not much I know, I feel like it's nothing, until like, it's been a month or two, I really can't say 'I've changed' but I know that I'll get there, I know that I have changed. I know that I will continue on this path and that makes me feel so good.

My mini week 1 goals are thus:

Scale goal: 1 kg. If I get more, celebrate. If not, then I will be upset because I have been trying very hard. But I will weigh myself for the first time tomorrow hopefully. So my measurement will be based on that and hopefully, the same next week.

Non scale victory: Walk proudly in my leggings and Tshirt when I walk to/from the park where I exercise. I am a fucking goddess and whatever I look like now, come back in 6 months, you will wish your girlfriend looked like me. (I'm joking but you know, just be proud of what I look like and what I'm doing and how far I know I am going to go)

Nutrition: No chocolate. I can do it. I won't make that my goal every week but from now until Saturday (the first day in my fitness week) there is no excuse for eating it. It's off limits.

Exercise: This week I want to get to 65 sit ups. 10 good push ups, and stick with my 1 minute plank.

As for the mini-challenge, I don't know what I'll try yet, but I'll find something. As is, I've started cooking meals for myself that I've never cooked before, like stirfry, even though I've eaten them a bunch of times. I will find a veggie that I've never tried before maybe.
