Yes, I know it is actually the end of January but it is still the first month of 2012. At the beginning of the year, I realized that something has to change. I felt like all aspects of my life were out of my control and not the way I wanted them. I obviously need to change myself physically...I need to be strong/fit and a healthy weight. Because of my weight, I kinda just gave up on taking care of myself. I didn't eat right (contributing to weight gain), I stopped caring about my appearance (makeup, skincare, clothing) and I just overall stopped trying.
So with that being said, I did like the rest of the world does and made some new year's resolutions. I decided that I needed to have a plan and focus on all the aspects of my life that I wanted to change and not just focus on the weight loss. I know that this year is going to be hard but I also know that I can continue to push myself and eventually come out on top. I am not giving up...I am picking myself back up and making a change.
I changed having monthly goals and have a couple short-term goals that I am working toward. I want to get back to my pre-Kenzli pregnancy weight and I want to be able to wear my wedding ring again. It has been almost 3 years since it has fit. I will admit that I was able to shove it all the way onto my finger a couple nights ago but my finger started changing colors and stayed really red the rest of the night. I miss it and can't wait to wear it again (hopefully, soon).
More on my specific goals and my plan to achieve them in upcoming posts. Check back soon!!!
