Unusual Morning

Today, a strange thing happened.  I put on a tank top that, normally, is very short on me because of the combination of my.....frontal assets and......fat.  So I'm just getting ready for work, I throw it on and, it fits.  Like it fits like a normal shirt should.  It's long enough, I don't feel like Baby Huey.  I haven't been doing a lot, I just started hiking yesterday.  However I have been watching what I eat a little more closely.  MY pants are loose around the waistband, so we'll see how this month progresses.  The plan is hiking 3 days a week, watching what I eat at work (which is my snack time usually), and walking the neighborhood.  I do plan to add weight lifting in April after we clean the garage and FINALLY unpack everything we moved TWO YEARS AGO!  I will keep you updated, but basically I'm doing a smoothie or a bowl of mini wheats for breakfast, Greek yogurt with honey, nuts, and a cutie or banana for lunch, then a reasonable dinner.  I do still try to keep it under control when we go out to eat.  This week's date night featured some yellow chicken curry.  Pretty good.  I think I'm doing okay.  This morning I rewarded myself with a bowl of peanut butter puffins.  Delicious ricey goodness.

Non Scale Goals

So I have a few fitness related goals I would love to accomplish this year.
1. I want to do a push with proper form right now I can just barley hold my weight to do a plank.
2. I would like to run a mile in under 10min.
3. I would like to compete in a Spartan race but right now I am way to out of shape for that.

I also have a few non fitness related goals.
1. Fit in a pair of jean petal pusher for summer. (Post pic below)
2 I have a dress that fits only because it is stretchy I would love it to be a bit looser so it looks better. I am also aiming for summer time for this goal to. (Post pic of front and side below)

One Month Goal

I woke up at 4:30 this morning to go out walking.  I got the sports bra, I got the pants, I got the shoes, no more excuses.  My goal is to, at the end of February, start walking my one mile course.  This morning was only 0.6 miles.  Not to mention I was sweaty and out of breath at the end.  Stretched some, will have to work weight lifting into the workout next month.  I think this is a pretty good goal.  I'm going to do this every weekday morning with special stuff on the weekends that A and I can do together.  We'll see, I hope this work out, works out.  Hahahaha, made myself laugh. Now for COFFEE!!!!!!!!!!

Fitness Goal for 2014

First major fitness goal would be to run a 5K not giving up on that dream. Second one which I think I can accomplish quickly like maybe the next week is to work out each day for 1 hour straight and after I got one hour down going for 1 1/2 hours, ultimately want 3 hours a day. I know this sounds like a lot but I don't want to take 3 years to drop 50 pounds like it took me the last time. Spring is around the corner I want to be able to go hike with my hubby in our local mountains take some pictures and just relax but I need to be able to go long distances hiking. 

Right now I have 50 pounds to drop and would really like to see it off this year :-)
