Fitness Goals

There's definitely been too much laying around going on in my house and unfortunately it's not just these guys.  But I know that the girls need exercise just like I do.  When I got home from work, I grabbed my iPod and took them on a brisk walk through my neighborhood and around Miller Park.  The weather was perfect for a walk.  I think they were still worn out from spending the weekend at my parent's house because by the last part of the walk they started to drag.
One of the new techniques I am using to reach my fitness goals is to set more reasonable expectations for myself so that I can actually succeed!  It's sort of like playing mind games with yourself, but hey whatever works right?  I have not been exercising much the last few years, so my goal this week is to do something active at least 4 days - it doesn't matter whether it's taking the dogs on a walk, doing a P90 DVD or walking with a co-worker over lunch break.  And when I succeed at reaching this smaller goal, I'll be proud of myself & even more pumped up to set another , more difficult goal for myself!
