WHY?

Sorry this is coming late. Better late than never, right? The results are in:

Rebecca -2.6
Jason +5.2
Clarissa-0.2

As we ring in the new year and set resolutions I thought it might be good to talk about goals and goal setting. We always have a What-"Lose 5lbs"
And a How-"Eat low carb, work out 4x a week, don't eat after 8pm.
What about WHY?

WHY?!?!? This is an essential question to answer when making goals. The "Why" reasons could/should be the best motivation.

WHY?
To be Healthy
Tie my shoe comfortable
I want to be a good example for my children
Fertility
Look great in a wedding dress... (Hint, Hint:Clarissa and Jason just got engaged)

What ever the reasons, write them down, focus on them, reflect on them, add to them.

WHY!!!!!

  2. The why...that is really important! I'm going to have to remember that more often. Hmm. I'd say a few of them are listed above, and I'd add the following to the list.
    --Be able to ride comfortably on an airplane
    --Fit into my cute clothes
    --I want to respect my body as the gift from God it is.
    --Keep the dang blood sugars under control.

    By the way--I went up 2.5 pounds. Boo.
