Goals

I have had a lot of time to reflect on my health and my goals these past several weeks. Obviously, I can't do much else but reflect. I wish that I could act on them a little more, but until I am well that just isn't possible. Here is what I want from life and my body:

1. I want to be as physically fit as my body can be. That doesn't mean super skinny..it just means fit!

2. I want to complete my certified personal trainer program. This is as much for the knowledge as it is for the potential income. I have completed the first of six sections and now must get on it!

3. I want to hike Havasupai Falls. I know that to many of you that know me the fact that I want to hike anything at all again is astounding, but I have seen pictures of this place and would like to see if for myself!

4. I want to eat clean. I am still learning what this means, but my family can benefit from this as well. We have started getting rid of the processed foods in the house and not replacing them. It is better for all of us!

5. I want to want to strength train on my own. I used to be a solitary exerciser, but becoming a spin addict has changed that some. I feel that I need that added support of having a partner, and I don't want to rely on that.

6. I want to be proud of myself. This is the biggee. Right now (or to be more honest) right before I got sick...I wasn't and I am not now. I have been just getting by with exercise and not eating right for a really long time and it is time. I don't want to fail at the health game anymore.

I don't necessarily want to be so strict that I don't enjoy food, but I definitely need to eat healthier and less junk food. I like how strong I was a year ago. I don't like how hard it was to hike the Grand Canyon this past February. I am ready to make a change. Have a work out schedule, and stick to it!

That is it for now...I may expound on this list from time to time, but today...right now...this is what I want! And I am going to make a plan for success!
