Here’s a diet that works:

You sound like you’re well on your way Rich!
My goal/theme this yr is DISCIPLINE. I plan to operate as I never have before-I will do routine activities for 150 days straight! This is completely against my nature. I’m a carefree, go with the flow, night owl. Being carefree has gotten me far in my crazy world of homeschooling-5-children-while-running-a-home-base-business. But I KNOW that focused attention is now what I need to multiply my success.
We’re 7 days into Jan and so far I’ve carried out my “routine” longer than I have ever done in my lifetime. LOL! PTL!
Phew Rich! You’ve got your work cut out for you! I know you will do it!!!
Rich, great job detailing out what you want to accomplish. It’s so cool that your wife is joining you on your weight loss journey. I have been doing a lot of thinking and planning action steps for my goals this year. I’m claiming this year as a year of breaking free and transformation with two HUGE goals, one a weight loss goal and one a debt-free goal. But like you I’m backing those up with plannning, visualizing, and action.
Looking forward to hearing when you’ve met your goal!

Shannon, my wife has been passionate about healthy living/eating for a long time, and I’m slowly catching up to her!
We’re really enjoying getting up early to work out together. I wish you the best in achieving your two big goals this year too!
Rich
I really liked how you turned resolutions into goals as that is much more effective, and was impressed that you dug down and identified the steps you need to take to achieve them. Identifying obstacles to your progress is setting a great model because we all experience obstacles in achieving our goals. I have identified goals in different areas of my life – spiritual, family, work (offline and online) but to achieve those goals I have to master the biggest challenge and that is to maintain my F.O.C.U.S (Follow One Course Until Successful).
Yvonne, thanks for your comments. I love your F.O.C.U.S. strategy!
Rich
I really like how you outlined your goals. I didn’t make a new year’s resolution or if I did, I don’t remember, LOL! However, looking at your outline, I think I can create some very specific to-do lists and keep up with them better.
Best wishes on conquering your new year’s resolution – with a focus like that you have no choice but to win!
Hi Rich,
Your goals are definitely doable. I did a case study on my 30 days with Jillian. It was a good workout! If you want to read about it you can click on the 30 Day Shred category at my blog.
Did you mean visualize for # 8? Just wondering. As for the iphone app, I’m looking at Lose It now. Thanks for the resource.
I linked to my goals above and one goal not on my list is to run/walk in the Reggae Marathon (1/2 marathon) with hubby in Dec. in Jamaica. I have a lot to do to prepare because I don’t currently run so I’m in the research process of accessories I need, etc.
Best to you with your weight loss goals!
Hi Angie, thanks for your comments. I do mean “virtualize” instead of “visualize.” Because I don’t want to just envision what life would be like when my goals have been achieved – I want to start acting like they’ve been achieved. Hope that makes sense.
I wish you success as you prepare for your Reggae Marathon! I was in Jamaica for an hour two weeks ago. We were on a cruise and had a day in Ocho Rios. Sadly, it poured rain for most of the day.
Rich
One of my biggest goals for this year is achieving my ideal weight. I’ve lost already 44 pounds but have been stagnant in losing more. I truly need to focus and move forward in my weight loss goals. I know that looking at the prize is the biggest way to achieve this. Focusing on that end result and just not allowing myself to get unmotivated no matter what.
I loved your goals- very inspiring.
All the best,
Eren
What a fantastic list of Resolutions…and goals.
And congratulations on your 70# weight loss from the other time! That shows you can do it.
It’s terrific that your wife is your accountability partner because it’s a lot easier exercising and eating right when your SO is there beside you.
That Jillian Michaels video looks interesting; I’ve been considering getting one of those, too.
