Work on my Secret Goal
05.08.08 : Planning Stage 15 months ago

I’ve been thinking about this for a month, trying to prepare for it, and I think I’m not quite ready, as I wanted to get on it today. So, I’m going to need a few more days, and re-strategize on how I’m going to convince myself to finally execute this goal. My heart is nearly there, and my mind is pretty much made up.

be more flexible
05.08.08 15 months ago

I will attempt to achieve this goal through pilates mat work at home, and sun-salutes in the mornings.

My first and foremost sub-goal for this, is to get in the habit of doing it daily for a week. (No excuses).

If I don’t have a slight sign improvement in a month on my own, I’ll have to find myself an affordable studio.

exercise regularly
Exercise, Get Healthy, Get In Shape - 05.08.08 15 months ago

Okay, so, I’ve kicked off alcohol for a month (check), cut down on coffee (been having a cup a week to wean off), eating predominantly at home this month (went out just 3X), and now I’m ready to incorporate an exercise regimen. I’ve been walking mostly, but I need to step it up, and make it more of rigorous and varied. For starters, I picked up Siler’s “Pilates Book”, which I’ve perused. I think I should start getting up earlier daily to do my mat work, and continue my walks in the afternoon. As I increase my energy, I’ll begin jogging again. So, for starters, it’s Pilates + sun salutes in the mornings and walking in the afternoon.

My Target Goal: Get Healthy : by product (hopefully) lose weight and get in shape.
