Fitness Goals: Week 3

Last week I wanted to go to the gym 4 times a week and I accomplished this so this week I want to go for 5.

Starting April 1 Nathan and I are starting a 30 day challenge. My goal will be to lose 5 pounds, his will be to gain. Keep posted on that.

30 Days of Truth: Day 5

Day 5: Something you hope to do in your life.

There are two things I want to do in life... I want to teach & I want to travel. I already teach preschool but I hope to be able to teach elementary and possibly college one day. I have traveled to the Philippines to see where my dad grew up but I want to see the whole world.

30 Days of Truth: Day 4

Day 4: Something you have to forgive someone for.

I do not really need to forgive anyone for anything because I try not to hold grudges. The past is the past. I may be upset for a few days but I will forgive anyone without an apology for my own sanity. It's just how to be a better person.

Fitness Goal: Week 2

Last week I made the goal to do a mile on the treadmill.  Well last week I accomplished that goal!! Yay me!

This week my goal will be to go to the gym 4 times for at least 45 minutes.. Last week I went for 45 minutes but only 2 days :(

30 Days of Truth: Day 3

Day 3: Something you have to forgive yourself for.

I need to forgive myself when I make mistakes.  Sometimes I am harder on myself than others are but sometimes I have to remember that I need to forgive myself for things I have done wrong and learn from those mistakes.  One thing recently I need to forgive myself for is being mean to Nathan he has forgave me but I haven't I am working on forgiving myself.

30 Days of Truth: Day 2

Day 2: Something you love about yourself

I love my ambition. It's sad why I am so ambitious but being ambitious has lead me to great things. Growing up, my Filipino side of my fam always tried to make my siblings and me feel inferior due to the fact that we're half black. They never expected me to be much and because of this I always aim to exceed anyone's expectations of me. Well that's what I love the most about me. :)

New workout goals

So I haven't worked out consistently in a month and I realize that I am becoming my own demon. I'm a great planner but exercise is not one I'm good at. I plan way too big for what I'm ready for so here are my NEW workout goals:

1. GO TO THE GYM. This one is the hardest. My goal is to go. Even if its for 10 minutes and all I do is cardio. 10 minutes in the gym is better than the 10 mins I'm gonna spend bumming around anyway.

2. Create 2 week mini goals. This is important because I think it will take my focus off of my bigger goal which is to obtain 16% body fat. My goal for this 2 weeks is to run a mile on the treadmill. This is a moderate task because 1. I'm averaging .75 miles and two I hate running lol. I do intervals though so I have time to decrease my heart rate.

3. Goodbye diets. Now I know what your thinking. How can you lose weight if you're not dieting? Well I have an even better plan. I'm not a terrible eater already so I plan to eat whatever I want. But just in moderation && I will eat fresh veggies at every meal.

4. If I get unmotivated... Use Pinterest! There are plenty of motivational pictures on there so that will be my last resort

So lets see how this goes...

30 Days of Truth: Day 1

Day 1: Something you hate about yourself

Something I hate about myself.. hmm.. There is nothing i "hate" about myself but there are many things I wish I could improve.  I think the biggest one would have to be my actions when I am scared.  When I'm unsure of something or I do not know if it is the best decision I tend to have the fight or flight reaction.  Sometimes I ignore it ((ex: I want to apply for a school but it looks complicated and I don't know if I will get in so I won't apply)) or I overreact ((I breakup with someone because I'm scared of the outcome)).  I absolutely hate this about me only because it makes me doubt myself.  I over think things.  It's hard to improve because when I try I get really anxious.  For example, I may have wanted to tell my boyfriend "I love you" but I got anxious very anxious.  My hands got sweaty, my voice rattled, I just felt like I was going to die of embarrassment.  So what I have been trying to do to make progress is to take things one day at a time in baby steps.  So before I told my boyfriend "I love you", I made a pros and cons list, I practiced it many times, and I even chickened out a few times... But I know that I needed to tell him.  I went from a text, to a whisper in the ear, to publicly typing it, and my next goal is to look him in the eye and tell him.. eek! scary.  But anyways... back to why I hate this trait.. I overall feel like it is keeping me from being the best person I can be.
