I did not make my goal this week, although I did go running 3 times this week. So I did something. From now on I am going to post my goals on my own blog, so check it out here. See you on my blog.

Success--(barely)

I ran 4 times this week and I did yoga 3 times(yippiee!!), but it was really hard to do. I am going to do the same next week and see if I can be better at time management.

1. Run 4 times 30 minutes each time
2. Do yoga 3 times (30 minutes)

I didn't do so well this week...blah.

I did walk a LONG ways twice (not running but at least it was exercise, right?!)
I went to bed just a couple times by 11 but I wasn't up at 7 any of the mornings, bummer.

On a good note, I have lost about 7 lbs since the beginning of the month.

This week, I will abide by my bed/wake up times. I will walk or run 3 times this week.

Good luck to the rest of you!!!

I completed my goal this week. I have to go running this morning and do Yoga but other than that I have completed it! Yeah! This goal was hard to complete So Next week I am going to do a similar goal.

1. Run 4 times 30 minutes each time
2. Do yoga 3 times (30 minutes)

Believe it or not, the yoga is harder to do than the running, because the kids start crawling on me the second I start. (or the phone rings, someone is at the door, there are just lots of distractions at home) Anyway, I will push the yoga and hopefully I will be successful! Wish me luck!

(Anyone else setting some goals? I would be happy to post them.)

Let's help each other be more fit physically and spiritually! If you are interested in joining our Sisterhood of Support let Kamille or another member of Relief Society Presidency know you are interested. We will then get you a password so you can join us! We highly recommend it!!

Here's how it works:
1. Choose a Goal: This goal can be anything health/fitness related. Remember to make them practical. Setting smaller goals to help achieve a larger goal works better. They are achievable and less overwhelming. Some ideas for goals: losing 1 lb a week, exercising 4 days a week, exercising 2 hours a week, eating out only 1 time a week, etc. Be creative. Make a goal that will make a better you!
2. Be Accountable: We all know a goal is easier kept when you're accountable to someone (or you've paid someone) That's what we're here for! Once a week you log on and let us know how you've done that week with your personal goal. Let us know what you're goal is first off and then update us. We want to know how you're doing and we would LOVE to encourage you and have your encouragement as well.

It's that easy! Let's work together to get younger this year! We're excited to hear your goals and see how you're doing!
Until then,
The Huntsville Relief Society Sisterhood

Well, I have been going to weight watchers and I have lost maybe 2 more pounds. I have not done especially well with excersise and in fact I have a feeling that I will be up a couple of pounds pretty soon. The past holiday has been a little rough. So, next week I start work and I should do a lot better. Here's hoping!! My goal is to stick to my points this week. Thanks!

Last week, I went up a pound instead of going down and still no exercise. :( Reset my starting pound to where I was last Friday.

This week, down a pound from last Friday so success on that score. But, no exercise. Maybe next week?

My goal is to lose 100 pounds before my youngest son returns from his mission in 1 year. I have lost 35 pounds so far by giving up sugar several months ago. I want to exercise more. I plan to walk at least 4 times a week - I have 1/2 mile and 1 mile routes in my neighborhood. I need to set some other health-related goals, but for now I will commit to these two: no sugar and walking 4x week. I feel I will do better if I am accountable to someone - such as this group.

I lost one pound last week and one pound this week. However, I am failing in my exercise goal. It just doesn't get done. I am trying to figure out ways to be better. Here's hoping...Grettle

WELCOME!!

Well, here we go! My name is Erin Hourani and I am the..I can't really think of a word other than mediator, for this group. I am by no means the guru of health and fitness, if you know me you might have been thinking that, but I want to be healthier and more fit so I guess I am qualified. A little information about me.....I am 33 years old, I am married and I have a little boy. My husband is Salah Hourani and my little one's name is Laith. He is 6 months old. We just moved back to the United States from Jordan in June. In Jordan I taught Social Studies in a middle school and I baked alot of treats in my little counter top electric oven. One of the reasons that I have so much work to do to get fit again. Ha ha....but it tasted good. Before I was married in Jan., 2008, I was living in Houston working in the medical center. Before that, I was in California, Provo, mission in Moscow, Russia, Provo, and graduating from Magnolia High School.

I am currently going to Weight Watchers and I have lost about 11 pounds. I am so excited and proud of myself. It may not seem like much to some, but it makes me think that the next 40 are possible....yeah!!

Okay, our first challenge is to set a goal. We want something that is measurable and achievable. Baby steps ladies, we are not Neil Armstrong and we don't need to be making giant leaps. I often find that is when I usually fall on my face. So, I guess I have to make the first goal. Feel free to make one with me and let's put them on the blog. That way we can encourage each other, check up on each other, and share our success, triumph, and realistically some disappointments. The best part is we get to do it together.

My goal this week: (Let me preface this by saying that I love fair food and between the fair last week and the tailgate party this week, my points have not be as strictly adhered to as necessary......) so my goal..

I will stick to my points and only eat outside the house 2 times this week.

Now ladies, let's hear yours......You can post in the comment section or you can email us at huntsvillers@gmail.com and we will post it for you. Put health and fitness in the subject.
Thanks for joining.
