My 2022 Resolutions

Happy New Year Friends!

I haven’t ever done a post like this but this year I actually wrote out my resolutions in the notes app on my phone. Usually I just say things out loud like “I want to eat better” or “I want to workout more” and they are just grand statements but not actually achievable goals for me. I do a lot better with smaller tasks and checkpoints because it actually feels like I am getting somewhere with my goals! So that’s what I am doing this year. I’m not going to share ALL of my goals, because some are just more personal, but I will share most of them! So with this list I will share the goal that I made and then how I am going to break it down to achievable, checkable goal!

  1. Eat 2 fruits and 3 veggies each day - when I first made this a goal I said one fruit and one veggie with each meal but I think that’s not going to be attainable for my breakfasts. Breaking it down so that I just get them in makes it easier and more likely to get done! This will also help me cook more well rounded meals, which was another goal of mine! At the beginning of 2020 we were cooking SO many meals from The Defined Dish cookbook. It is a whole30 cookbook but we weren’t doing Whole30. We just swapped things as needed, but honestly we didn’t have to do that much and they were DELISH. The same Person just came out with a second cookbook and I just ordered it! Its called The Comfortable Kitchen! I also want to meal prep my lunches! I work from home but I take way too long around lunch time to figure out what I want to eat and then that turns into household chores and things so I just want to go back to prepping SOMETHING for my lunch on Sundays so there is no questions when it comes to 12:00 during the week! I think I am going to start this week with my giant chopped salads prepped and then I will pop some chicken nuggets into the air fryer daily for some protein. But I might mix some weeks up and make my Gluten Free Crockpot Chili! One pot will last me about 1 dinner for two people and then 5 lunches for me!

  2. Take my vitamins every day - This one might seem simple of insignificant to some people but I have been taking my vitamins every day for the last three weeks (before the new year started obviously) and I honestly feel accomplished and proud of myself for doing it. I struggle with consistency and having the last three weeks of proof that I can take then daily really has been awesome for me! I recently got this pill case from Amazon and it has morning and night separated and I just use it as two weeks!

  3. Read 12 books this year - Another goal that probably seems small to others but I do like reading/listening to books I just NEVER make the time for myself to do it. I always think I could be doing about 10 other things. But at the tail end of 2021 I started listening to books and it was a lot easier for me to do. Here are a few from my “to read in 2022” list! I just need to come up with 2 more! I am going to start by listening to the book People We Meet on Vacation!

  4. Actually get ready everyday - One thing that I am trying to get better about is actually getting ready for my days. For me that would be putting makeup on, doing my hair and putting on an outfit that makes me feel good! It doesn’t have to be a super dressy outfit, it could be an oversized tee, bike shorts and a hat but I will still feel put together and I think that will help with my productivity which I am ALL ABOUT this year!

  5. Work out more days than I don’t each month - There are a few layers to the “lets be healthier” goal. I wanted to break it up and actually make it attainable like the food goals! So I want to workout more days in a month than I don’t. This doesn’t make it so strict like working out 6 days a week, etc. I want to use the peloton more than 10 times a month. Doing this will make the Pelaton cost less than $4 which is what I wanted! Thats not including the other person that uses is {cost wise}! Bottom line is I just want to move my body more!

Like I said at the beginning there are a few other things on my resolutions list but these are the main ones that I wanted to share with you guys. I think having all of these out in the open will make me stick to them a little bit more! I also want to create like an update post of sorts each quarter to update how these goals have been going! Did you guys set any goals this year? I would love to hear what they are! You can comment below or you can email me at tarynintotravel@gmail.com and I will get back to you ASAP!
