A New Mission...a goal to be achieved!

Mission: To be 20 pounds lighter

Goal : Half Marathon in the next 7 months...why 7? no particular reason - my other favourite number 3 will be too soon!

Milestone: A 5K run on the 5th of September 2010

Well yes...am very excited and motivated today. I have set a goal for myself and am determined to achieve it. While some of the inspiration came from the book "Julie and Julia" that am currently reading, there were a whole lot of other reasons why this project made a lot of sense. I list them down here - so that they are always there to motivate me in moments of amnesia and weakness!!

1. Currently all my health problems get attributed in some way to the weight..so once this is taken care of...atleast I know the real reason for the problems...

2. "PAIN - FREE" Life!

3. Want to feel fit and energetic

4. Guilt free eating...everything that I want...

5. No more Hormonal Imbalances...

6. Bring down the medicines...

7. Want to complete the goal I set for myself and feel the exhilaration...would want my family and friends cheering at the finish line...

8. Have harboured a desire to pour water on myself while running someday...but have to get to that stage where its doesn't seem 'gimmicky'

9. Want to shop for medium sized clothes from now....well..I know I can't fit into small...so I set a realistic target

10. I want to have "Before" and "After" pictures to put display..and a story to tell as well....;-)

So here I am with my mission and a strong determination to succeed! Hope I manage to make a difference...to myself
