Goals

Goals for the week of March 22

Exercise: 
Do the "Power 90" exercise DVD program at least 4 times this week (the program's goal is 6 days a week, but I know I'll have to work up to that!).
Walk at least two miles at least 4 times this week.

Diet:
Drink at least the recommended 64 oz. of water each day (will probably require a checklist, not to check off, but to REMIND me to DRINK MORE WATER!).
Stick to the high fiber diet plan without exception for at least one full week.

Financial:
March bills are all paid, gas tank is about half full, groceries abound, and I have about $100 left in the bank. The goal is to sit on that $100 and roll it into a savings account, to be acquired on payday, March 31.

Writing:
Write for at least 30 minutes each day, whether it is a journal, this blog, working on my children's series (first one still being written), or another writing project.  This will generally lead me to more than just 30 minutes of writing.

Free Time:
I am doing better to spend free time reading (books--fiction and nonfiction--and magazines) and not brain rotting in front of the tube.  My goal is to not set a limit on hours of TV each day, but to not sit and watch TV for no reason either--if it is not a program I am really interested in, shut it off and grab a book.  Or work towards one of the above goals! :)

Weight Loss:
I would like to ultimately lose at least 50 lbs.  I remember the size I was when I graduated high school, which was 50 lbs. ago, and I would at least like to be that size, preferably smaller. But I want to hit that goal first then determine if a new goal is warranted, and what it will be. So to achieve the first 50, I'll go in chunks, 10 lbs. at a whack.  So my goal for the upcoming week: to lose 3 lbs.  I wish I had Harvey Walden to bark at me and keep me on track. :)
