Dreaming 2008

I dream of being healthy and happy with my body, my weight, my clothes.

What am I going to do this week to make that happen? (Dec. 31 - Jan.6)

1.      Walk 3 miles every day or do Walk Away The Pounds (3 mile)

Update Jan. 5: I did this one day. Time is a HUGE problem.  It has been too cold to walk outside, too dark when I get home at night… New plan: Do 3 mile walk away the pounds in the morning. That means I get up at 5.  Do I really want it? OOOHHH I really want it!

2.      Eat a HEALTHY breakfast (which does not include fast food)

Update Jan. 5: Made it four days.  The days I DID eat McDonald’s I skipped the hash brown and got a mcmuffin instead of a biscuit.  Barrier: Time, boredom.  Solution: Deal with it,

3.      Get rid of clothes I hate.

Update Jan. 5: I did this - I purged my closet.  It was scary to just GET RID of stuff.  But now it’s gone and it’s not cluttering up my life anymore!

4.    Make an appt. with my doctor.

Update Jan. 5: Ooops, totally forgot.  Will do on Monday.

Things to do week of Jan. 7 - 13:

1. Make appt. with doctor.

2. Walk away the pounds 3 mile.  Every morning.
