Hello all. Sad to say since my journey started last year, I stopped exercising, stopped eating right, gained back all of the weight I lost plus 10 pounds. I tipped the scale to the tune of 300 pounds. That said, I decided to get back on the bandwagon and start again... with a new approach and a new way to achieve my goals. I'm going to start slow, continue slow, and finish strong. I have discovered if I rush myself or try to adhere to someone else's way of losing weight, I lose motivation... so I'm going to do it my way... and I've got a feeling it might take longer to lose the weight, but if it's something I can stick with for life, I'd rather have it take time and be permanent than to lose rapidly and crash again. I made that mistake once, not going to do it again.
I have started small already, but really going to have this project take flight January 1, 2012. Twenty-twelve will be MY year for change... for excellent change. I have had a lot of obstacles in my way this year making it difficult to focus on ME.... and though not all of the obstacles have resolved themselves, I have a better handle on them.
So... wish me luck.... join me if you like... and make 2012 the year for YOU.
No time like the present to make changes. Even the smallest of steps will get you going in the right direction right?
