Lofty exercise goals

With the new year approaching I am determined to get back on my exercise program.  I want to actually plan my exercise program this year so I can establish a habit and not just go whenever I'm in the mood.

Then I sit down and plan aerobics and weight training with extra exercises for my lower back and pretty soon I've got a comprehensive plan that looks really good on paper. 

But here I go again setting lofty goals and planning to be super woman.  I just can't be satisfied starting with walking 30 minutes a day.  It sounds so boring and OLD!  I want to do weights and not just lose fat but build muscle too.

Start slow?  Start small and set yourself up for success?  Gosh I hate small goals!

Learning to reign it in....so hard to do...

I do the same thing.  Have a great plan, factor in how to time work outs to the greatest advantage, balance calories in with calories burned.  I can usually do it for a couple of weeks, then I can't get out of bed in the morning to do it.  And I always think I have to do it in the morning- I can't even remember why anymore. 

The weights are even worse, cause I can never remember what I intended to do with them.

What are small goals anyway?
