Changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes
General January 1st, 2009It’s been said: 2009 is all about change - good and bad. We have a new president coming into the White House, the insanely hot guitarist is leaving the band I go see all the time (bad thing, very bad thing), I’m in a new house, making less money (another very bad thing)… and I have a new blog theme. Not sure if I like it or not, but I figured a new theme for the year 2009. I’m going to be making some changes around here and in myself. I WILL DO IT THIS YEAR!!
I think 2008 was a learning year. I learned a lot about my self. I learned I COULD run. For someone who had never run more than a block before, I worked my way up to 2.25 miles (which you would never know after my run today). I learned that if I stayed within my certain calorie range and exercised EVERY DAY I would and could lose weight. I lost just about 20 lbs in 2008. It could have been a lot more if I had actually stayed on plan. I’m not very good at that though. I learned that about myself as well.
So you’ll see some changes around here. Maybe a new theme until I find one I really like. The header in this one though makes me think of the roads I would love to run down. I plan on making a few new pages as well to track my progress. And I ask all of my sisterchicks to hold me accountable. If you see I am slacking, call me out on it!! I totally mean it.
Like tiny2b said….. we are all in this together!

I think that sometimes learning that the ability is within yourself, that is often a better battle won than the weight loss itself!

You have had a lot of transition this year, really adds up when you see it all listed like that. Heck, just a job situation change OR a move OR buying a house is enough for one year! My wish for your 2009 is stability : )

20 pounds? YOU GO GIRL!
I love the new theme. You really can’t go wrong with Buffett.
I’m raisin’ my margarita glass to you and to a great 2009!
