check-in and goal setting

Weight as of Tues. 146 lbs
Waist 32.5 in., hips 38.5 in.

Goals:

Lose 15 lbs in the next 10 weeks, then 5 lbs more by Dec. 1
Increase fitness level to the point that I can run 5k comfortably
Get on top of billings and accounting by the end of the month, and pay off 75% of business debt

Methods:

Eliminate online time (except for this blog) except for 20 min per day if other goals met
Bring lunch daily, using minimal effort and maximum taste methods.
Take the time to workout daily. Use things like nice gym showers and tv as motivation
Do food, exercise and work journal
Set aside time next week to do billing blitz

Work is getting better in terms of having things finally set up and a reasonable stream of new work coming in. The accounting/administration is the last piece of the puzzle, along with paying down the new debt associated with the expansion. Once that is done and I'm more up-to-date, pressure should be reduced and I should feel less urge to avoid.

The kids continue to be awesome.
Marriage is great - my husband has been supportive of the weight loss, fitness goals and office expansion. Our anniversary is this week!

As it gets closer, I'm getting more excited for the 40th birthday and Bat Mitzvah celebration.
