2016 Goals

New Year Resolutions are not something I normally go in for as I am really bad at keeping them I get depressed and eat chocolate!!

However I need to make some changes in my life and feel like a fresh start at the beginning of the year will help me, so rather than New Year Resolutions I have decided to do a 2016 goals, so if I don't achieve them at the beginning of the year I won't get down as I have the whole year to achieve them.

Most of these are very cliché goals but I feel I need to write them down and I will update on them which I think may help me to get there.



Study
I have been studying AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians) for a few years and I am on the last level. I struggled with two of the exams and the last time I took them I had just found out I was pregnant so I was not in the right frame of mind. I sort of gave up then to be honest but I want to get this done and hopefully being on maternity I will be able to fit it in whilst I am at home.

House

Our house is a real mess and still not finished. My Aunty saw it for the first time a few weeks ago and her words were "You have a lot of stuff" which we do. Neither of us went through our belongings before moving in and so we have just moved rubbish from one place to another and now it needs sorting out. Also we haven't finished decorating and I have no pictures up or curtains, these are the things that make a place feel homely and I want to get the house done this year.





 

Weight loss / fitness 

This is the most cliché goal. Having a baby just before Christmas meant that it was hard to start on a diet or exercise routine and I have put on weight since giving birth with all the Christmas food, I have no self control. I am not going to set myself a weight loss goal but am going to have a dress size goal. This is because I have always been quite heavy for the size I am so I don't really look at my weight, obviously when I get on the scales and it is really high I get depressed but I want to feel good in myself so I will aim to go down a couple of dress sizes. Also I do want to get fitter, I have gone through phases of exercise but never really stuck at them so I need to find the right exercise for me. I cannot run due to leg problems which is annoying as I do like running, also I am a bit of a loner when it comes to exercise so struggle in classes. I think a bit of research is needed to find something that is right for me. I do enjoy kettlebells so might look into that.

What are your resolutions or goals for this year?
