With all the amazing food around me this season, people keep asking, “Why did you decide to start a diet NOW?” I guess people hold off til after the holidays to try and lose weight…hence New Year’s Resolutions. My answer to that question is two-fold. For one thing, I reached my limit. It doesn’t matter what time of the year it is, I need to lose weight. Secondly, I am going to Hawaii in two weeks. I want to have lost 15 lb by then (I started this diet about a week and a half ago, and I’ve lost 7 lb. so far).
Keep it up everyone, and remember the saying, “Nothing tastes as good as thin feels”!!

The song “Brand New Day” by Tim Myers has cutesy lyrics that describe how I wish I could feel when I wake up every morning but I feel more like how comedian Mike Birbiglia describes when he wakes up – he says he feels like a lame cow on the side of the road. I would like to have some kind of routine to look forward to that gets me up and out of bed and refreshed and excited for the day. I’m always late for everything and I think this would help with that little problem too.

Finances...
12 months ago
My boyfriend and I have set a budget and he is investing in stocks and things like that. I think we’re on the right track. I still have a lot of self-discipline to work on when it comes to spending, but I think I’ve accomplished this.
