Okay, so I bought a little black dress this past spring. It was a 30th birthday gift/reward. My plan was to put it on lay-a-way and set a goal for myself. The dress fit, but if I lost five pounds before I got it out of lay-a-way, it would fit PERFECTLY. I was going to wear it for myself for my 30th.
Here's a picture of the dress. Like I said, the one I bought is black. I tried to take a picture of the actual dress, but my photography skills (or lack of!) just do not do it justice. Isn't it cute?!?
Well, guess what? Life happened. Unfortunately, I didn't reach my goal. I actually gained the five pounds... plus several more. Happy birthday, me, here's a few extra pounds. :(
After MUCH consideration, I've decided that my first goal is to WEAR THAT DRESS. I would like to say I want to wear that dress by my 31st birthday, but I don't want to stress myself out with a definite date. I'll just say that BEFORE 2011 I WILL WEAR THAT LITTLE BLACK DRESS and I WILL FEEL GOOD IN IT!!!
Getting to the point that I can wear this little black dress really shouldn't be that difficult. Getting to the point that I can comfortably wear this little black dress and feel GOOD in it will be. I know that I can accomplish this goal I have set for myself if I can remained focused on the end result.
I need to remained focused on what I know my AWESOME God wants for me, and that is for me to lead a healthy, happy life so that I may better serve him!
"I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has
called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."
-Philippians 3:14
So, here's GOAL #1. I'm still unsure of what my other two goals will be, but will let you know
just as soon as I decide!
