Ahhhhh. Fresh new year. Fresh shiny new year in which we can do all sorts of good things. All sorts of things right.
This is the year!
The year I will:
Eat healthier and stop poisoning my body with crap.
I will look at healthy eating positively. I am fixing what damage I’ve done over the past 49 years. By the time I turn 50 (in about a month and a half) I will already be on the road to recovery. On the road to feeling more awake and alive than I have in a long time.
To those of you who posted before and those of you who can post (the Baker’s Dozen) I think I was able to update your statusii from “Contributor” to “Author” hopefully allowing you to post an entry without my having to approve it. Give it a try. If it still doesn’t post pronto, leave me a comment and I’ll approve it and see if I can figure something else out.
I’m on a 45 weight loss journey this year. 10 pounds at a time. Here’s to a healthier year for all of us, whether you have just 10 pounds to loose or 10 million!
I have the same five to lose again due to all the cookies and fudge that magically appeared in my cupboards and on the counter over Christmas. I sent some to work with Lovely Daughter and fed some to the doggers. There’s a reason they love me, you know.
I did my own version of clean eating a few years back. The first few months was rough because I had alot to learn about food and portion sizes but after that I was able to eyeball how much I should eat (what 3oz looks like) and I was craving fruits and veggies and cringing at junk food andy anything fatty.
You can do it! And when you are over that hump of wanting to eat everying in sight (that’s what happened to me) you’ll find it easier and easier to give up all the yucky stuff.
I signed up for the 10mile Cherry Blossom Run in April that should get my annoying 10 pounds to go away.
I’ll be signing up for as many walk/runs as my credit card (and husband with his budget) allows. I’d love to start my clean eating again but I’m still nursing so I have to eat…maybe I should have waited till I wasn’t nursing to lose the extra 10? ugh
