February Goals

So of course it is snowing like crazy again today, with at least 9 inches coming, and that groundhog predicted 6 more weeks of winter! I can't take it anymore. So while I'm figuring out if I can even make the drive into work today, I will leave you to see how I did on my January goals.

1) Workout at least 3x per week. Well, I did 2 out of the 4 weeks but this really wasn't my fault. I was sick as a dog with strep and a sinus infection and could barely function for 2 weeks, so I will give myself a pass but I definitely need to work harder this month to make up for it. 

2) Come up with a weekly blog series. CHECK!! Wise Words of the Week, for the Win! (I like alliteration, so sue me). Check out the latest edition here (I may or may not have skipped this past Friday).

3) Stick to a budget. Well, uh, this has yet to be determined. I purchased a few gifts for people in advance this month (what can I say? I'm a compulsive planner) so that may have set me back. Other than that, I really didn't make any unecessary "me" purchases. We probably could have done a lot better in the eating out department, but we can work on that.

Well, January wasn't a complete failure. Let's keep February's goals short and sweet.

One. Lose 6 pounds. For real this time. Let's do this. I need to win mine and Brian's weight loss contest so that I can make him get a pedicure and I don't have to go to a Devil's game. I am going to work out FOUR, yup, four times a week, as well as eat much healthier (no junk food except as a treat on a weekend), which should help me reach this goal. Also, I decided to jump start by doing a raw food week today through Friday, ahhh!

Two. STICK TO THE BUDGET! We are super duper trying to buy a house right now, and therefore we seriously have to be good this month and the rest of the months forever and ever.
