My Journey to be Healthy in 2014

12/29/2013

I am still trying to get to an ideal weight. I have continued with walking and healthy eating, although sometimes I have some treats. So my goal for 2014 is to have a great journey with my family and getting to healthier eating habits and closer to my ideal weight.

I want it to be a journey because I want to enjoy it. I think sometimes I fell off the wagon, because things get boring. I need variety.

So here it is. I will not have resolutions for 2014 but I am setting goals.

1. Increase my water intake

2. Reduce to a minimum my diet soda intake. I want to be realistic here. If I am out and they offer it to me I might still drink it. So I will allow myself the occasional sip.

3. Do any type of physical activity daily. Walk/run, elliptical, exercise video or daily challenge.

4. Have a My Life is a Journey monthly exercise challenge. January will be Burpees.

5. Participate in #2weekchallenges with the #mamavation community.

6. Complete some 5K with my son and complete at least one Mud Run with some friends.

These are awesome goals - I love the idea of doing a run with your son. My daughter & I do HIIT bodyweight workouts together (she is 10, I am . . . not!). Go get 'em in 2014!

I took my son (8) to some 5ks this year, so I want to motivate him to continue doing them with me in 2014
