I have been working on my goals and trying my best to accomplish them. I have done well with some and with other's I still need lots and lots of work on. But you know what I am determined to break my bad habits and create new ones. So what have I accomplished this month and what do I still need to work on you ask? well keep reading and I will tell you.

my fist goal I have been trying and trying to cut out for a long long time. I still struggle with this everyday but I am determined to give it up once and for all. so I will be carrying this goal with me into February.I have how ever cut my intake of this bad bad stuff down by like half. I used to drink this stuff like water and could not go without it. I would drink it 7 days a week twice a day sometimes more then that. I know can go for a few days at a time without it and have only one a day when I do for the most part. As I type this I will admit I am on my second one for the day and have had one every day since Friday and some days I have had two. But starting tomorrow I am giving it up for 28 days. if I can do this then I can be done with it for ever. and this is my all time biggest goal ever is not want it at all. 

my next goal is to drink more water. I have been doing well with this for the most part. But when I have my soda that is when I slack on the water. And I tell you I do notice when I don't drink enough of it. so by giving up the pop starting tomorrow I will be aiming to get in at least 64 oz of water daily. 

my third goal, back to tracking I have been doing this since Jan 1 2018. I have now done this for 30 days. My goal now with this is to get better at it and do it properly. I will talk more about that in my post for my February goals. 

my fourth goal which is portion control. I have been doing OK with this for the most part but def can do better that's for sure. I get lazy and don't want to take the time to measure and weigh everything. I know I don't have to but you know what if I don't then I am an all or nothing kind of girl. I will fill my plate and eat until I am so full I wanna go and have a nap. also with doing proper portion control this will also help and make the tracking easier. I don't always need that extra pasta or piece of cheese cake or chocolate .

my fifth goal. was to get back to working out. I am happy to say that I am working out again. I just need to do it regularly and not make any excuses not to do it. Like today I have my period and have cramps and am extra tired well I decided I didn't want to work out. cause I didn't feel well. but I just switched my rest day. So now instead of having a rest day on the weekend I have to work out. 

Junk food , is also a down fall of mine. I crave a lot of crap around that time of the month and feel like I have to feed an army when it's just me. I want chocolaty and salty and crunchy. the more the better whether I am hungry or not. So this goal will also carry over with me to February

and my last goal. I am also carrying over I want to get this down to once a week then once every two weeks then maybe once or twice a month . We will see. So there you have it. My goals.

I may not have been perfect threw it all this month but you know what it's all about baby steps and sticking to it and fighting for what you want. I stuck to it and planed things out and for the most part I have done really well for myself. 

how have your goals been going so far this year. ? have you accomplished what you wanted to or are there things that you will be carrying over till next month.? 

I will be back tomorrow with another post with my goals for February  

Have a great rest of the day

and my you accomplish what ever goals you have set for your self.

One thing never give up on yourself your worth the effort and you will get there

Coming Back || vlog #1 goals

my goals that I talk in my blog post.

2018 Goals

        Alright time for me to get my ass back on track and eating better. I have been feeling like crap for most of this years and I know if I change my eating and get back to my workouts. I will start feeling better again. I have been fighting to give up caffeine and was doing well until recent. But have noticed that while drinking coffee my stomach does not agree with it. SO I need to stop it again all together. SO that is my goal from now until Jan 1 2018 to not drink any more coffee. I drink the starbucks bottled cold coffee.
   

1) work on no junk food such as
      - chips
      - chocolate bars and candies
2) Track my food better. I use myfitnesspal and need to stick with it for more then just a day or two
3) Healthier meals and snacks and I need to do 5 - 6 mini meals a day
4) no more caffeine at all no matter what
5) Eat every 2 to 3 hrs no skipping meals.
6) Drink 64 ounces plus of water daily.
7) Back to workouts daily. 5 days a week at least plus walking the dog twice daily
8) Get my sleep in bed at a decent time no later then 11pm up by 630 am work out then get kids up by 7-730
9) set a regular bed time routine for both the kids and stick to it. giving them regular showers and meal times. No more being lazy with this this is a must no matter what.


Break Down of goals

- starting with the junk food. I will be cutting out the chips and chocolate bars and candy start now today Dec 11 2017, I want to have a head start on this and then this way it shouldn't be as hard come the new yrs. starting tomorrow I will not being having any more coffee as I have had one today and now I don't feel that great. I need to learn I don't need it and just get over it already. There are other things to drink and that I will feel better without it. I am going to also start blogging again here and I think will start my youtube channel back up again as well.

  This is all for now I will come back tomorrow with an update on how day one has gone without any junk food.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you will come back to see how I do with my goals.
