So with a new month brings a bit of reflection of previous months. So how did I do with my goals for February?
Financial Goals
I have a goal for the year. I have a large amount of money that I would like to have in my savings account by the end of the year. I have broken that down to a certain dollar amount that I need each month. I am not going into details of exactly what I am saving or how much...that is not the goal to tell people my personal finances. But....I have that goal of what I need and I met that goal! In fact I smashed that goal and saved a few hundred dollars more than I needed! I am on target to meet that financial goal well before the end of the year! Can I double that goal? Hmmm. I’m going to do my best!
2021 miles goal
My challenge to propel myself 2021 miles in the year 2021 is going well also! I needed 168.48 miles for the month of February. I had to up my daily miles a bit due to the fact that February was a shorter month. But I made my goal. I made my goal with room to spare! I actually got 55.26 miles more than I needed! I am doing great! I have been consistent with my miles and I am quite proud of myself!!!
Lose weight
I set a challenge to be at or under 200 pounds by the end of this year. That equaled to be roughly 1 pound a week, with about 6 weeks extra to account for no loss week. I didn’t do great in January and just posted a small loss for the month and February was not much better. I lost 1.6 pounds for the month. I am not knocking it...it is a loss! It could have been a gain. So I am happy. But I am so going to have to pick up the pace with my losing because I have now used up all my freebies. I am down to the wire. I have to lose 1 pound a week from here on out to meet my goal! It’s time to get serious and take no prisoners!
I am aiming for the same goals for the month of March. My goals this year will remain the same as I am working toward large goals. But that’s ok. It helps me build consistency!
March is going to be fantastic!! I can smash all my goals! I know I can!
I have set financial goals for myself as well. One thing I did was take on a second, part-time job. Every penny of those paychecks went to either paying down debt or straight into savings. It helped a lot. Not sure if that is an option for you. BTW, this is my new blog (again)...I just posted about it on my old one (the butterfly one)!
