Dreams...Sweet Dreams


Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than one with all the facts.

I have dreams, but many of them I've put on the backburner because they don't seem possible or just don't have the time to go after them. I know that it is important to have something to shoot for because that keeps me motivated. Right now, my goal is to try to lose some weight and tone up for our trip to Vegas(or wherever we go) which is at the end of May. Ohhh!! I can't wait!

I have figured out my entire exercise rotation starting tomorrow and it goes all the way through to May 30th. Whew! It is a toughie, but I think that I will look the best that I possibly can if I stick to this plan. Basically mixing interval workouts and weight lifting. Working out 5 days per week. Since I have let my weight climb (today my scale read 188), my goal is to try to reach 175 by the time that we go to Vegas. That gives me around 7 weeks. Since I will be lifting weights quite a bit, we will just have to see if that is even possible.
I just can't believe that I have let myself go like this. I was so close and now I have to work hard to get to a weight that I don't even really want. I mean 175 will still be heavy, but in any event, I will look a whole lot better than I do today. It's hard to believe that summer has snuck up so quickly. I mean, I had such goals for what I wanted to accomplish weight-wise by this time this year, but that's okay. I still have my goals and I have my dreams. I'll never give up on my dream of reaching my goal weight and being toned. May not be this month and may not be the year, but one day, I will have the body that I have always wanted. That's one of my BIG dreams!
