July 2007 Goals

**Libby** · 06-28-2007, 01:53 AM

Wow I've totally missed June...but I'm back!
I am going to keep my goals short, sweet and realistic LOL

1 - Use my new Gazelle a minimum of 15 minutes x 5 days a week

2 - Eat out less and make better choices when I do eat out (less "cheating" or "treats")
3 - Lose 5 lb's by end of July

4 - Go and meet my new GODSON who was born on Tuesday afternoon!

And lastly, be as frugal as I can be - still need to finish saving up for my RRSP and pay off credit card debt

What are your goals for the hot summer month of July?

Add the last $300 to our vacation savings
