May Goals!
 
Hi all... I thought a May Goals thread might be a good idea. I am pumped for summer and finally eating well and excercising consistently so I think the cute summer clothes are in the near future!

My goals for May are:
1) Contiue eating vegan plant-based diet
2) Run 4 days a week and increase long runs to 10km
3) Include more strength training into exercise routine
4) Lose 8 pounds

Yup, it's that time again to carve out some short term goals! For May I want to be doing some form of cardio 5 days a week and weight lifting 3 days a week. I also want to cut down on my portions, focus on whole foods and eat no more than twice during the month at a fast food restaurant. Oh yeah....and I want to lose 8 lbs too!

SephyFowl 04-29-2008 12:21 PM

Short term goals make me feel like I'm accomplishing something. .haha so here mine are.
1. Be running at least 3 miles 4 days a week (by the end of the month get my stamina up to that.. lol)
2. To be down a size in clothes.
3. Lose an inch off my body totally.
4. Start to run outside more often and not on the treadmill so much..

KateB 04-29-2008 12:49 PM

My May goals are....

Stick within my calorie range EVERY DAY 1650-1750 calories

Workout at least 5 days a week every week

Drink at least 64 ounces of water a day...everyday!! (I have trouble getting it all in on weekends)

Lose 12 pounds

just keep swimming 04-29-2008 12:55 PM

My goals (so far) are:

1. Stay under 1600 calories at least 6 days a week.
2. Cardio at least 6 days a week.
3. Exercise 1600 minutes total.
4. Be able to run a mile in 10 minutes or less by the end of the month.

graciegoose13 04-29-2008 01:24 PM

my goals:

1) continue writing down my foods and counting calories
2) keep sweet treats down to once a week
3) keep aiming for 10,000 steps a day
4) get solidly into the 170s

Erika79 04-29-2008 01:39 PM

Here are mine!

- Lose 6 pounds
- Do some sort of exercise 6 days of the week
- Get in at least 100 ounces of water, daily
- No white carbs for May! Only whole grains. *

* I've always eaten whole grain bread, not an issue. Always have 'white' pasta and rice, however, so I'm going to attempt the switch-overs there.

scorpio88 04-29-2008 02:42 PM

My goals:

-Only take 4 rest days throughout the month (I find when I rest for a day it's soo hard to get back on track).
-60-100 minutes of cardio each day
-Lose 5-8lb (would LOVE to be 134lb as that would be my lowest weight in..about 6-7 years!)
-Get down to a size 5 (currently a size 7)
-Don't lose focus on eating.. I think this is the reason I am gaining weight. I wanted to try a low carb diet as it seems to work with dropping weight, however as a Vegetarian, I get a lot of my calories from carbs (good carbs like fruits and veggies and whole grains though).

Feral 04-29-2008 03:43 PM

May Goals:

-Start BFL
-5 days of Cardio, 3 days of weight training each week
-Drink AT LEAST 64 oz. of water every day (if not more)
-800 minutes of exercise for the month of May (I have to ease into this, I'm just starting back up!)
-Lose 10 lbs

KatieLeighVOLS 04-29-2008 03:48 PM

Great idea!!!

-Make it to my goal weight (only 3 pounds to go!) and MAINTAIN!
-Exercise at least 4 days a week (even if it's a 20 minute walk around the block!)
-Be able to wear clothes I'd never dreamed about wearing before (bikini, here I come!)
-Finish training to become a WW receptionist and then eventually Leader!
-Incorporate more vegetables into recipes---AND get my family to try some new healthy recipes!
-Try to control my sweet tooth and not eat so many points in sweets per day!
-Feel GOOD about myself and comfortable in my skin!

1) 1400 minutes of exercise
2) 7 lbs.
3) No deep fried food! No fast food!:devil:

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone meet their goals!!!!!!:cheer:

h0cusp0kus 05-01-2008 12:37 AM

My monthly goal is short and sweet! I want to finally lose those last 5 lbs and move into maintenance!

carolineintx 05-01-2008 10:29 AM

Ok, heres what I've come up with:

I'd like to get down to 145. I've kinda stalled out at 149, the scale will hit 148 and then the next day its back at 149...*sigh*...really anything lower than 149 will make me happy.

I want to work out at least 4 times a week, preferably 5 or 6, but no less than 4.

I want to be able to do 'program 6' on the stair climber for 30 minutes (I've been at 3 and 4 forever, I did 5 yesterday with no problems for 20 minutes, so getting to 6 for 30 minutes would be great!)

I want to fit into the size 9/10 pants in my closet, I can get in them, I just can't zip them.

Taylor86 05-01-2008 11:06 AM

My May Goals:

1) Workout 3-4 times a week
