New Years Goals Check-in: May
I’m performing monthly updates on my New Year Objectives.
I’m a wee bit stunned that I’ve made it to a fifth New Years Goals Check-In. Component of me thought it would have all gone to pot by now! But I guess keeping the goals little and sane has ensured they are do-able.
Might highlights
- The greatest highlight was, derr, the Fitbloggin conference. For both the men and women I met and the feeling of renewed enthuasism for living that I left with. Holy cornballs, Batman. But after a year or two in the wildnerness, the stinky depression and the utter disconnection from my body, I lastly felt like I was all joined up once more. I felt like I was in fact there. Cool.
- I accidentally started salsa lessons! My pal Claire and I went to attempt a new Zumba class this week and they had a special provide – stay for the salsa class afterwards for only £1. We’s planned to dash off to kickboxing afterwards but I’ve usually wanted to try salsa so I put down that extra pound. BARGAIN!
- The class went on and on for 90 minutes and with the hectic hour of Zumba beforehand I was utterly knackered but it was so a lot bloody enjoyable. I was so busy attempting to follow the steps that the time just zapped by. 4 days later my hip and stomach muscles are still singing!
- I’m undoubtedly back into those size 18 jeans. Despite the fact that I bought new jeans from a different shop the other day and they had been a 20. So the labels are meaningless as we have recently bitched about, but the takeaway here is that a pair of jeans that couldn’t be wrestled over my stomach in January now fit excellent.
- I went to the USA for a week and lost a pound. Last time I went to the USA for a week I gained ten pounds. Progress!
- The food diary, meal planning, consistent exercising and pause-to-believe-just before-eating are still going nicely.
June is going to be about blowing the dust and rust off my bike, dabbling with kettlebells and testing the limits of the food processor with vast amounts of instant frozen yogurt. What are you finding up to this month?
