JLente's Notizen, 10 Mai 18

Another day in the books and on the verge of Friday!

I got to thinking about goals today, specifically goals that relate to that damn number on the scale. We all have them. We all are working hard to get to or through them. For me getting to the number is not motivation enough, it's important to tie something of significance to the number to drive the motivation.

300 is (well was now) because it was the point where I turned 40 and felt I was recovered from divorce etc. Being back to that point feels just as good.

250 is my next goal for the simple reason that, for a big apart of my life, was a comfortable weight. Still considered grossly over weight for someone that is 5'll but being athletic I could still ball and run the court with the 'youngins'. So getting there is like getting back to a comfy place and I'll be able to fit racing leathers again :P.

225 is 'I have made it' type goal be cause at that weight, college years, I was in the very best condition, sub 10% body fat etc. and just to be back at the number in my 50's would be cool. Plus at that wight I feel I'll be competitive at the local track running 'vintage bikes' from the late 80s and early 90s.

200 is a serious stretch goal as I have not been there since 8th grade/freshman HS or so. It simply would be cool to say 'yeah, I'm the same weight I was in HS' plus at that weight I think I could at least not suck running with the fast guys in the GP (1000cc modern sport bikes) class. Plus, I'm sure my son will be wanting to race that class when he can in 3.5 years so would be very cool to be able to race with him and not just be a pit monkey.

Anyway.. those are my goals, not the numbers but what is behind them in my head. Set your goals, put some meaning behind them and use that for your motivation to drive yourself forward. Use that meaning in weak moments when reaching for that twinkie to ask the question of yourself.. "Is this more important to me than doing X later?"

I do hope y'all out there have had a good day. And if not, its ok to bake an adult beverage or two into your plan every now and again. Either way do good things for yourselves and have a relaxing evening!
