It's on.

I'm feeling rather uncomfortable in my skin at the moment. I feel heavy. Normal activities seem more difficult. I want to look good for My Love- she's so beautiful, healthy and fit. I will never be as beautiful as her, but it's time to shape up. It's time to do something about it.

Here's my goal:

I'm going to lose 15kg before Christmas.

The assignments are unrelenting. It's terrifying. I barely have enough time to hand one in and I'm frantically scrambling to get the next one together. Study needs to happen. Exams are approaching.

Here's my goal:

I will do a minimum of 12 solid hours of study per day.

I haven't had time for the most important thing of all. I haven't spent enough time in God's Word. It's something that doesn't take much time, but helps me with every step I take. I need to make sure I'm filling myself up with The Word, so I can draw on it to share with others.

Here's my goal:

I will read and analyse 1 chapter of the Bible every day.

Things will look a little different around here.

  4. Hey I remember your dance-gym-workout things! :)

    Good luck with all your goals. I know you can do it because you have the cutest little chickens ever so you must be amazing so you can do it!

  5. Heh heh. Sadly, doing artsy-crafty things doesn't help with mechanical engineering or weight loss...

    *Sigh*

    You're mean, Ames...

    Always calling me fat...

    :)

    Bring it on! I've already had my morning run (see post above) and my breakfast was essentially carb-free! Yay for Day One enthusiasm!

  7. I like they way you wrote "fricken" like "chicken" :).

    Thanks, Sis :). Thanks for helping me cut out some sweet shapes :).

  8. Yeah, those are some steep goals. Be careful not to overextend yourself!

  9. Thanks, Matt :). In my second year of uni I gained more than 12kg in the 1st 12 weeks. Not a clever idea. I'm being smart about it. They're steep goals- and I won't do anything that is obviously jeopardising my health. I just need figures staring at me.

    At my lightest (and I've never been stick thin) I weighed just less than 70kg. Now I weigh 90kg. I need to do something about it.
