My Signature

The story goes like this: Yesterday I was supposed to WeighIn, but I didn’t stepped up to IT because I was affraid… again. So, early this morning I stepped over my digital “torture device”… Looking for some comfort and support… but what I received wasn’t supportive, nor good news. So I caught myself moving my Digital Tanita Weight around the bedroom to see weight changes… Looking for the “best” number to post. I moved my weight and weighted myself up to ten times! Each time I weighted I noticed a slight change in numbers… I was getting confused! But I discovered few things on the way…

• First, my weight is slightly different in every part of my bedroom.
• Second, I weight less in the bathroom… Specially if I evacuate first.
• Third, if I place the weight over the bathroom carped to weight myself, I’ll weight up to 2 lbs. less than on the bare floor. I guess I need to walk around with a bathroom rug under my feet… ;0)

After goofing around with my weight… my DH told me I’ll have to maintain My “Mini” Goals for one week before I can reclaim my prices. This is what I get for being trying to cheat my weight!

On the end my DH convinced me to post my first Weight In of the day… So, I’m proud to announce I’m .4 lb. down. Considering I’m in “those days” .4 lb. IS A LOT, because women usually gain up to 3 pounds in their MC days. I didn’t gained a pound! That’s good… hey that’s REALLY GOOD! Only .6 lb to my second “mini goal” and 90.6 to reach my “ultimate goal”… I’m getting there!!! Wooohooooo! I’m sooooooooo happy. I’m dancing on one foot ;0)

Please be patient… We’ll get there… Some day…

These week’s “NS Daily Doses” inspired me to write about “goals”… For a long time I’ve heard I’m supposed to “divide” my “long term goals” into “short term ones”. But I never did it until recently. Thinking, dreaming, and writing our long term goals help us know what we want in life… for the coming years. But, dividing those long term goals into short term ones, help us reach them. That is, making daily changes lead us towards our yearly goals. I must say… since I started planning in my mind and writing what I wanted to accomplish daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, etc. I’ve being doing much more better on walking towards where I want to be in the future. Short term goals are keeping my plans on perspective… Therefore I’ve come to the conclusion that short term goals are key to succeed on reaching bigger and much more complicated goals in life (As for having my own business… or loosing 100 pounds) Before I learned to think and write short term goals for long term goals, I used to feel overwhelmed about how much I needed to do to reach my long term goals… Therefore I’d be discourage even before I started… I usually ended up doing nothing.

So, here I am again setting some short term goals to keep my life and long term goals into perspective. Today I’ll set my daily and weekly goals that will get me to my “Summer Goals”… and latter to my “New Years Eve Goals”… Be a healthy, strong, and beautiful 145 lbs. woman.

THIS SUMMER I WANT TO:

• *Have a nice bike ride without feeling I’m going to “pass out”.
• *Ride InLine Skates at Old San Juan wearing a sporty/cute outfit.
• *Celebrate my 33 birthday weighting less than 200 lbs.
• *Feel comfortable wearing shorts, swim wear, and tan tops.
• *Wear the swimsuit I bought lass year, but that I didn’t used because it was too small for my 22 size body.

TO MOVE CLOSER TO THOSE GOALS I’M GOING TO:

• *Stick to my NS program everyday.
• *Stay in control when I eat out of home.
• *Go back to NS basic, if I fall out of track.
• *Drink 64 oz. or more of water daily.
• *Go to Curves at least four times a week.
• *Have a thirty minutes walk, five morning a week.
• *Do some kind of abs routine everyday.

What about you… Did you set up your goals for this year? Do you have a plan to reach those goals? Are you commited on doing it?… I KNOW I AM… AND I’M DOING IT.

Let me explain…
