    Goals for Dec

    • Strength training 3x weekly. Can slip just have this target. Mon / weds / fri mornings
    • cardio on other days, even 20 mins counts but this shall be separate to the steps goal
    • join a gym for a row machine. I know which one already. Go twice a week. This does not count as strength training for goal purposes since I need to shape. Does count for cardio and reps = steps.
    • average 12000 steps (current 11k, excluding cycling which I do a lot). Reps of the row machine shall count as steps. 1 hour cycling shall equal 6000 steps, but we shall cycle fast. Be active daily.
    • read 1 book just for fun / leisure, preferably in Spanish but English is ok. Any length is ok.
    • weigh 85kg by dec 31 regardless of Xmas feasting (1kg net loss). If I don’t hit this, then only fruit for munchies and 100% sober and vegan throughout January.
    • 1 music concert
    • 2 dinners with friends, excludes Xmas dinners, NYE, & dates
    • visit dentist
    • find a new ADHD shrink because current one is too hard to get appointments with
    • book a therapist for any next available date
    • go to 1 social mixer where I don’t know anyone, of any type, from meetup or facebook or whatever any of those meetup sites

    On any day except Sunday, if I don’t achieve or meaningfully move towards at least one goal, I must not smoke weed.

    On any day I smoke weed, I must prep a fruit salad and popcorn for munchies. No cheese, pizza, nor ice cream when stoned.

      Except as noted this is mostly my current monthly routine but stepping up a little in some areas.

      Specifics would be dentist, I should start therapy, gym for row machine because I want to try that, and committing to at least 1 social mixer.
