New Year Goals

Sunday, January 06, 2013

I have been thinking on this the past week. I realize I once again need to buckle down. It is always amazing to me how easy it is to fall into old habits... :-(

1. Start planning meals ahead of time
2. Plan more veggie dishes at meals
3. Get back into whole grains
4. More fiber in diet
5. Make an exercise plan so it is not so hit and miss
6. Plan portions for my dh ( which means learn to cook less amounts) LOL
7. Less computer time and more planning time ( plot out times for the areas in my life that need it)

I see a pattern and it has to do with planning. Life is very busy with my new job. So many plans in the making! But this is important , also....

Great (insightful) plan! We know what to do. We just need reminders of the details sometimes.

Sounds like you have a plan. Now to implement it! Go for it! You can do it and will do it. I tend to plan in my head and probably need to get it on paper too. Have a great week! June

End of Lemon Summer Challenge

Tuesday, August 21, 2012

This has been an interesting challenge! I realized , yet again what an emotional eater i am.... SO I started taking back my health and my decisions.. I do not want to keep going around this mountain so i am going NORTH... No more circling! I had forgotten how good it feels to eat healthy and exercise regularly! Now, back to making sure i cook healthy. hard at times with everyone's schedules.. But I am going to try!!!

Can I ask why you chose North? (It is gonna get cold!!) On a more serious note any insights you gain is a plus. You are on the right path and we Lemons will be supporting you all the way.

End of Lemon Spring Challenge

Tuesday, May 22, 2012

Well, I did not meet my goals. I am so disappointed with myself this challenge. I did not feel the umph.... not sure why...Too much stuff in life going on.... At least i did not gain....

BUT, I was not consistent in anything... and I certainly lost ground in my habit!

SO I need to get back on the bandwagon... I need to remind myself this is about health more than weight.
I am trying to cut back my internet time... with being an online Bible study group leader... hard... plus Spark and life.... I am definitely going to have to prioritize( specially with so much outdoor stuff to do)

I DO HAVE TO LIMIT MY COMPUTER TIME. I WISH WE HAD A ICON FOR WE CAN DO IT. PUTTING GOD FIRST IS THE MOST IMPORTANT. PLEASE TELL ME ABOUT YOUR BIBLE STUDY YOU TEACH. I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR ABOUT. I DO BIBLESE STUDIES THRU PROVERBS 31 MINISRIES. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS KAY

I completely feel the same way! Things in this challenge did not go as planned but it does not mean that I'm giving up!

I am wishing you much success with the Summer Challenge!

I totally understand !! We must do what we feel is best for us!! Too much time on the computer does take away from the time we need for other things..and with you having your Bible study..I can see why your time on Spark would be tough with everything else that you have to do also. We must keep our priorities straight which isn't always an easy thing to do. Don't be too tough on yourself. We must always remember to take time for ourselves..and remember that we deserve it :)

and blessings for you!!

Thanks for bringing me onto the team this Spring.

I felt the same way a few weeks ago--I knew I needed to limit my online time in order to achieve my goals. It was hard for me to do because I looooove being on Spark and being a cheerleader and cheering my Sparkfriends towards their goals. I love that part of Spark so very much. Still, I needed to spend more time off the computer and more time moving my body to lose this weight. It is a challenge, but it definitely is doable. Set a timer for yourself if you think you need it. :)

Wishing you much success in reaching all of your goals this Summer.
