Refocusing

I know my blog has been quiet for over a month.  There's a good reason for that.  During the month of May, I realized I wasn't consistently meeting my health goals.  In fact, I was only meeting them about half the month.  My chart, which was meant to be a tool to keep me on track, was stressing me out and I was bored with walking and eating salads.  As a result, I'm modifying my goals.  My new goals will be much less rigid.  I'm still aiming for 10 minutes of intense activity during the day.  But, this can include a walk with Steve and the kids, playing on a playground with the kids, yoga, Zumba or anything else I please.  For water, I'm striving to finish two of my water bottles at work and drink water with supper.  My water bottle contains 24 ounces so if I finish two at work, I have a good start on drinking water.  As for my diet, I have a new goal to eat 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day.  If I have a piece of fruit with breakfast and a fruit and a vegetable with lunch and supper, I should be able to meet this goal.  I don't plan to add any new goals until these goals become a daily habit.

  1. Theresa, having goals such as your new ones, which give you the flexibility of when, what, how...are much more achievable in an already busy life. Well done!
