So, as I go through this journey of living a healthier lifestyle, it's important to go through with challenging, yet attainable goals.  So, here are mine. Some will be completed, some will be added.  But the point is that I set them and do my best to accomplish them.

“13 For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.”
— Phillipian 4:13
