Fresh Goals for a New Month

Posted Mar 01 2010 1:30pm

Happy March!!!

Wow, how did that happen, where did February go??

I love the first day of the month, it’s such a fresh start! An amazing opportunity to begin or rekindle some new healthy habits you’ve been putting off or have lost sight of. And I like to think of March as the unofficial beginning of Spring (my favorite season!!!).
I can feel it in NYC, Spring is definitely in the air!

It’s always a good time to start doing something better for yourself. And 2 months into the new year is a place where people’s efforts to do something better for themselves often falls by the wayside.

I had some New Years goals that I haven’t quite gotten to fulfilling. I think a new month, and some renewed enthusiasm is a great time to try for them again! I think setting goals at any point is important, it allows you to step back and take a look at the things you have already done and then decide on the new things you would like to achieve.
And life is a lot more fun when you have something to strive towards!

Some of My March Goals

  1. Run outside more often (hate that darn treadmill!)
  2. Have more veggie and green-centric meals (they just make me FEEL better)
  3. Read more books on Nutrition (any recommendations?)
  4. Volunteer (I have been putting this off and it’s something I feel very strongly about doing. Today I began my efforts to find some volunteer work!)
  5. Spring Cleaning! (I’m a messy girl, and this NEEDS to get done, if only for the BF’s sake!)
  6. Be more social. (It’s hard to balance studies and a social life, but I must try to go out more and explore the city and see my friends!)
  7. Make more blog vids!

Getting Green.

As I said above, one I my goals is to have more veggie-centric meals, and perhaps this is one of your goals too, everyone can always use more greens!

I always like to know what fruits and veggies are in season each month so I know what to pick up at the store.

So here’s the list of In Season Veggies and Fruit  I found for March in NYC:

  • Apples
  • Carrots 
  • Onions
  • Potatoes
  • Turnips
  • Winter Squash
  • Lettuce
  • Mushrooms

I am planning on eating all the Winter Squash (and sweet potatoes) I can till the day it they go out of season!!!
I’m even planning sweet potatoes a la Zesty for dinner tonight after another Core Fusion Class!

*Also, if you’re wanting to start Spring off with a bang check out Leah and Rachel ’s’ Outside the Box Challenge !*

What are your SPRING goals/plans?

P.S. Cant forget to express my excitement over the CANADIAN MENS HOCKEY GOLD YESTERDAY! WHAT A GAME! WHAT AN OLYMPICS! OHHH CANADA!
