December Goals

Well, here we are - it's already December.  Where did this year go?   December is usually the month I let everything go to hell with my eating and exercising (actually, I'm not sure I've ever made it to December with exercising before so I am already ahead there). In an effort to keep myself on the wagon, I am going to set some monthly goals going forward and see if I can't stay on track with them.

1) Work out at least 5 days a week, preferably 6
I am going to just stick to my biking and running and wrapping up the 100 pushups program and continuing with my mini-goal of being able to hold a plank for 3 mins.

2) Keep my food journal up to date

If I don't write it down, I will gain. With only 118 days til Mexico, I can't afford to gain

3) Drink more water.  and then drink some more.
In the winter, I am so bad at keeping myself hydrated.  So I am going to aim for 4 full bottles a day (I have a large water bottle I carry with me everywhere)

4) Don't sweat the small stuff
It's the holidays and dealing with everything that entails is pretty stressful.  I am determined to NOT get stressed out this year and to just enjoy it. 

That should be enough to get me through the month.   Next month, I guess it'll be time to look at new years resolutions and to start training for my Half in March!
