New Year challenge...

Happy New Year! IT's that time of the year we get a fresh start, start over, make new goals, new promises, set new challenges! Of course we can do this anytime, but January 1st just seems to be a fresh start for everyone.

I've been on break with my kids. Since they go back tomorrow, that is when I start all my new goals. I don't set resolutions, I like goals better. But this year, I have decided to go ahead with a resolution. Last year was a rough year for my family. My dad was diagnosed with Lung Cancer. He's doing good now, but it was a life changing year for my family. I found myself on a very good path to get healthy. I was running and working out, watching what I eat and doing really well. Then about October I develoved a nice upper respiratory infection, common for me and accomponied by a cough that lasted till December. Out the door went the running and excersing. Of course just in time for the holidays and with all the goodies everywhere, I gained back all that weight. Dang!

So, I decided on a resolution to lose that weight. It felt wonderful running, I am not a runner and it was amazing that I was able to do week 5 of the couch 2 5k program. I could work out with "My personal trainer" on my wii and walk away pumped! I want that back! And I want to drop a couple dress sizes so I can get that "Little Black Dress" for my birthday this year. I have a feeling that this years forty something birthday is going to be rough, I want to look good if I have to add another year.

Well, the resolution has become a challenge. I want you to jump on board with me. You have to want to do this and it will be up to you to find the resources. (I'll post as I find resources that I feel are low cost and effective) But hopefully I can add a touch more motivation to the goal.

So are you up to the challenge? I have a prize for the top weight loss loser! You can follow me here, but I need to know who is in! Sign up on my facebook page or email me your name and where you live. Check in will be weekly and totally your responsibility.
