Over 2023 and 2024 I decided to try get more in shape before I hit a milestone birthday. In order to accomplish this, I've been setting obtainable goals for my fitness journey. I find if I just focus on losing weight, I eventually get discouraged when my progress slows. Having smaller fitness goals gives me something to work towards other than just my weight, and helps me get in shape.
