Let's talk about goals. Goals are anything you strive to achieve, whether it be a better job, a higher paycheck, or a smaller waistline. On this page, we're going to focus on the latter; a smaller waistline. I plan to achieve this goal by setting short term and long term goals that are realistic and motivating, not impossible and crushing.
Current weight: 125 lbs
My all time low weight was teetering around 120 lbs, staying either a few pounds above or below. My all time highest weight was somewhere around 180-200 pounds. Those were dark days for me and I certainly didn't get on the scale until I had already begun losing a considerable amount of weight, which is why the exact weight is unknown.
I know that being aware of my calories, a smarter and healthier diet overall, and finding a way to implement exercise into my daily life in lieu of attending a gym are all crucial to losing weight. Sure, I can lose weight by constricting calories, but that's silly. Sure I can lose weight by exercising, but what's the point if I'm improperly fueling my body. My preferred plan of attack? A higher protein, lower carbohydrate diet paired with the Insanity workout. Why Insanity? I started it once and the kickstart it gave my metabolism was amazing. Furthermore, when I do the Insanity workout, I feel amazing. Knowing how good it makes me feel is motivation.
So now that you know how I plan on achieving my goals, let's talk about them. First, I want to have three check points, or short term goals, leading up to my ultimate, or long term, goal. Once those are in place, I have these smaller stepping stones to lead me to my long term goal for my 27th birthday.
