3 Personal Goals
• I want to lose 50lbs by the Beginning of February 2011

I want to lose 50lbs by the Beginning of February 2011
• I will start counting “points” based on the Weight Watchers program.
• I will attend weekly meetings.
• I will increase activity to at least 3 days a week.
• I will keep track of everything I eat.
• I will not eat out of boredom.
Overcoming some barriers that may prevent me from reaching
my goalBarriers
• Thanksgiving• Christmas• Hanging out with
Friends and family• Lunch at work• My sweet tooth
How to Overcome• Not deprive myself
on eating, but to keep track of EVERYTHING I eat. Bringing my lunch from home will help in making a healthier choice so that I will not be tempted to eat fast food.
My Reward for meeting my weight loss goal…

• I will attend school as many semesters as possible.
• I will take 9 credits or more each semester.• I will ask for help as needed.• I will study every day as much as possible.• Meet with an academic advisor once every
3 months to make sure I am on the right path.
• I will finish my assignments on time.
Barriers that might keep me from reaching my goal
• Life changing events; marriage, birth, or tragedy.
• My two-year old• My job schedule.
How I will overcome these barriers
• I will stay focused on my goal• Pick classes that work around my
work schedule.• Confirm help with my son before
adding too many classes.• Should a life changing event happen,
I will deal with it and pick back up where I left off.
My reward for meeting my graduation deadline…
I want to buy a house by June 2013
• I will repair some items on my credit• I will decide where I want to purchase a home• I will save half of my tax returns each year
towards a down payment• I will decide what I am looking for in a home- 3
bedroom, 2 bathroom, garage, central air etc.• I will work overtime if asked• I will regulate my spending• I will meet with a financial planner
Some barriers that might interfere with my goal
• Emergencies, such as; car breaks down, and medical emergencies.

Overcoming those barriers
There is really no way to overcome some of life’s unforeseen circumstances, but I will not give up and keep saving until I get there!!!!!
