Failure and Goals


After writing out my last post I realized it was the first time I had ever told someone a goal I wanted to accomplish. I have always felt uncomfortable speaking of goals I had set for myself for fear of not meeting my goals and failing. Since I have joined Mamavation a lot has changed. I’m not afraid to tell my fellow sista’s my goals. I know I wont fail. I know that they will not let me fail. I know there are a lot of other moms out there who do not have a support system at home like myself. If you are reading this and you are not a part of the sistahood, please consider joining. The support you receive is phenomenal.


I want everyone to see my goals I have set for myself so that you can help me reach them!!


Overall Goals

10%: 19.5lbs loss

Halfway: 25lbs loss

Pre-pregnancy weight: 150lbs

Ultimate Goal: 145lbs

2010 Fitness Goals
Run 5k under 35min

Run 5k under 30 min

Run 3 Races
So there you go, I can’t run away from it now. I can’t wait to come back here and cross these bad boys off the list!!

Sharing goals contributes greatly to your accountability and that's a huge step! I <3 the Sistahood.

Those are some sweet goals. Be gentle going into the sub 35 minute 5K... just be consistent. For the sub 30 you'll need to pick up intensity, intervals are great for that. I look forward to seeing how your 2010 treats you.

You have some awesome goals! That is great that you put them out there too. That is what I do when I weigh myself. Put it out there so I'm ashamed I guess & will change it! :)
