Two Thousand Twelve.

It is a new year. 

2011 was a pretty good year around here, all things considered.

One of the areas where I still need work, however, is my health.  I lost about 20 pounds this year (well, really nearly 30, but then gained some back). I'm glad to lose.  It's a step in the right direction.  But I need to do more.  I know I'm not on Biggest Loser, and I don't expect to lose like they do- but if some of those folks can lose 20 pounds in a week, then I damn well can lose more than that in a year.  I need to get my butt in gear.

I'm going to make a commitment to myself here.  I know every week may not show a loss.  I know that- I must be realistic.  But at year end, I want to net an average of at least a pound a week.  That would be 52+ pounds gone at the end of the year.  That is a modest goal.  Totally reachable.  I can do this.

I go back to work tomorrow, and will be back on plan.  I'm going to be logging on sparkpeople and exercising at home using a gazelle, aerobics videos (on demand and DVD) and the Wii. 


I can do this!
