A bit obsessed

In the last week I have been a bit obsessed buying up some fall candles. I fell in love with the mulled cider one. I am not sure where I am going to put ten all. On the bright side I won't need to buy any for a couple years.

A Reminder

I need this as a sign in my cube over the next two months.  At the very least while we are getting to know the new system while also still working out of the old system.

500th

I realized last week after writing all my posts that I was oh so close to my 500th post.  I don't know how that happened.  I still get excited with every comment.

January

I made it through the month of January.  I didn't make it as far as I would like with the fitness goal.  But I did lose 2.5 pounds and a total of 1.5 inches.  It is a good way to start out the year and gives me more motivation to keep going.  I hit my goal of no cokes for the whole month.  And I am going to get back on that kick after falling off yesterday during training.  I did well with eating healthy and not eating out but once a week and even made it two weeks without eating out at all.
I saw a couple ideas to keep me motivated on Pinterest.  One was putting a dollar in a jar for each workout completed and I was doing that but I don't keep a lot of cash on me so that was getting hard.




Then I saw an idea where you put a stone in a jar for each pound lost.




So I decided to combine the two ideas.  I am putting a stone in a jar for each workout I complete.  Each stone will be worth a dollar.  I have it sitting on my dresser so it is a reminder every day.






I saw a calendar on Megan's blog call Fab AB February.  It is a calendar of ab workouts for 6 days a week.  I am a little behind and will have to work to catch up on the four days I have already missed.

My goals for February are to continue with the workouts trying to get in 4 a week.  And continue keeping cokes out of my diet.  Not to mention doing the monthly ab challenge above.
I also want to continue with my goal of cleaning one room a month and getting rid of the junk.  I got  my office done in January and it feels great to have it complete.  It is a lot less stressing to do one room a month than trying to clean the whole house over a weekend of spring cleaning.
And of course have fun in New Orleans for Mardi Gras.

How is everyone else doing in reaching your 2012 goals?
