Tuesday, December 31, 2013. 2013 Recap / 2014 Goals. First, let's recap 2013? 1 Lose that weight - get down to 175 max. Got down to 172, maintained it for about 5 months, then I got hungry. Now I'm back to 179. 2 Exercise 3 times per week (at least 1/2 hour on treadmill to start - expand from there). My reality is I'm lazy, other than skiing, I did manage to get on the treadmill once or twice a month.maybe in 2014. 3 Increase quality time with my wife. Increase bankroll by $20k. 4 Visit 6 customers.
