Ok, I\'ll give this a shot!
1. My first goal is get down to 300 lbs by Memorial Day. To some people, that may not seem like a lot (only about 6 lbs a month) but to me it is. With my physical limitations, I have to do it mostly by controlling what I eat. But hopefully, by the time I get to 300, I\'ll be able to be more physically active. To do this, I will watch what I eat. I will eat only when I\'m hungry, and then only til I feel satisfied. I will drink all my water and try to get in all my fruits and veggies, plus take my vitamin every day.
Once I reach that goal, I will have to go shopping cuz all my clothes will be falling off of me!
And, after Memorial Day, I will work on the next 30 lbs. So, I\'m shooting for a total of 60 lbs for the year.
2. I will continue to walk as much as possible, whenever possible. If I\'m able to increase without causing me a lot of pain, I will.
3. I will continue to try to give everybody as much support and encouragement as I possibly can. I may not have the best advice, and if I\'m hurting or feeling bad, my words may not sound as sincere, but believe me, they will be, so read my words and think about the way the real me would say them.
4. Micheal and I have decided that at least once every month, we will buy a toy to give to Toys for Tots. We\'ll make a trip to the fire department once every month or two to leave the toys there. We\'re also going to buy extra groceries at least once a month to drop of at the food pantry. We can easily afford to do this. We thought about just giving the money to our kids, but we gave them money for Christmas this year and never got so much as a \'thank you\' from a single one of them, so we figure this way would be much more appreciated. Now mind you, we\'re not doing it for the \'thank yous\'. We\'re doing it because we want to. But we\'re going to give it where it will really be appreciated.
So right now, those are my goals for 2007. Anybody want to hold me accountable?
