September Goals Revisited

ByLisa Jayne 



Back in the beginning of September I blogged about my goals for the month, with a few little things I wanted to achieve. Now that it’s the beginning of October I thought I’d revisit the goals I set myself to see how I did. 
Go to the gym three times a week
I managed to half achieve this one, sometimes I’d make it three times a week, other times I’d only make it twice. I’m still a regular gym goer so I guess that counts!
Finish my 5K mud run
I’m so pleased with myself that I managed to do this one! A few months ago I couldn’t even run, so the fact I managed to even do this was a big achievement. I did however struggle a bit with some of the obstacles during the run, and did lose my shoes about 4K in, but I finished!
 
Eat healthier
I’ve recently been trying to lose a little weight, and in September I signed up to Slimming World, so I’ve definitely been starting to eat a lot healthier. 
 
Read two books 
I only managed to read one book during September, but that’s one more than I’ve managed the month before!
 
Cook four times a week 
I’ve gone from not cooking at all, to cooking pretty much every day in September, which is helping a lot with the healthy eating!
 
Start saving for a holiday 
Chris and I have never been on holiday together so thought we’d start saving up for a holiday. We managed to save £100 in September, but then due to an unexpected bill we had to use that money so we’re now back to zero. 
Overall I’d say I managed to achieve half my goals in September, which isn’t bad going! I feel like I managed to achieve some big things, like completing my run, and cooking and eating a lot healthier, although I didn’t complete all of my goals. 
 Did you set any goals in September? How did you do?

    Eurovision*

    I never used to like Eurovision, I just didn’t get it. It just seemed like a crappy version of a singing competition, but with more glitter and novelty acts. Then I went to university and my housemates reintroduced me to it, complete with a drinking game and score cards! After several drinks I started to…

    Every Sunday when I sit down to write this post I’m surprised at how quickly the past week has gone, and of course this week has been the same, where is the time going?! It’s already February, and we’re 6 weeks into the year, I swear it was only Christmas the other day! Once again…

    February Goals

    It’s been a while since I’ve done any monthly goals, in fact October was the last time I set any, and even then I failed pretty badly on them. So with a new year, and a new month, I thought it would be a good time to reset some goals for the month ahead, and hopefully I’ll managed to…

    Things I Liked In June

    I can’t believe we’re here, the beginning of July! Instead of doing my usual favourites post, I decided I’d do something a little different. I wanted to talk about a few things that I liked in June. Holiday Last week I went on my first holiday in over 4 years! I only went away for a week…

    This week has been a rather busy week, as you may have gathered from the lack of posts between last weeks update and this one. I started the week out still recovering from the worst cold ever and trying to get back into my gym routine, but by the end of the week I admitted defeat…
