"Skinny Ten"

Hello Ladies! Here are my "Skinny Ten" weight loss/self-improvement goals for the rest of 2011:


1. Lose 20 pounds by 1/1/12. Focus on losing 2-3 lbs. per week.

2. Exercise at least one hour six days per week (must be a fitness class or video). Make sure to sweat, sweat, sweat (that's sweat dripping of my nose sweating). If I'm going to spend the time exercising, I'm going to make it count.

3. Limit sugar/sweets (if I have something unhealthy, add 1/2 hour of exercise that day) Let's face it, I'm going to want to have something sweet, but now there's a consequence.

4. Spend 1/2 hour each day cleaning something in the house. (Hopefully, this will help me feel calmer if my house is neater.)

5. Eat at least one serving of fruit and two servings of vegetables each day.

6. When watching T.V., lift hand weights, do balance ball exercises, and stretching exercises. (no more sedentary T.V. watching).

7. When fibro pain is high, make sure to do extra stretching exercises.

8. Go for a walk at least three evenings per week and try to take family members with me (and the fat dog).

9. Cook better, healthier meals at least four times per week. Take over the grocery shopping and buy healthier foods.

10. Read the Book of Mormon by the end of the year.

Okay, these are my goals. I am inspired by you ladies! Let's stick together and accomplish all that we set out to and much more!

  2. If I do put the butt picture up, do you think it will traumatize anyone? Will it traumatize anyone to take the picture in the first place? What if it doesn't shrink? I'd be devastated!
