New Years Resolution

So... it is that time of year... again...

I love a new year. It almost seems like we can start all over, finally become that wonderful, productive, healthy, happy person we've always wanted to be. The trouble is, the enthusiasm to make changes, especially with exercise and diet, tends to fade once we realize we can't change everything overnight. If I want to make lasting changes, there are three things that I am going to do to make my resolution work all year long:
Adjust my attitude, change my lifestyle and come up with a plan for success. Time to start thinking about your New Years Resolution. I have come up with mine. I am sure you can guess what it is... Yes- to loose weight. Ever since I have had my son I have REALLY struggled with weight loss. So this time, I thought that I needed to come up with a plan that I could stick to. And this is it- burn more calories then I eat. Beginning Friday, January 1, 2010 I am eating much more healthy and smaller portions and I am exercising EVERY day. More specifically to keep my New Years resolution I have to make LOTS of sacrifices... they include-
1. Break a sweat every day.
2. NO MORE soda.
3. NO MORE sweets or candy.
4. NO MORE fried food.
5. LOTS more exercise.

I am going to do this I AM. No exceptions. My ultimate goal is to loose a pound a week. My sister-in-law is getting married on February 13, 2010. I will loose 6lbs by then!!!!!!!!

Anyone want to do it with me?

Liams 1st Christmas

Liams first Christmas was a success. He got LOTS of stuff. He got clothes, a red radio flyer, a baby basketball game, LOTS of bath toys (my son LOVES the bath), a new playpin, a high chair, building blocks, a jungle toy that sings and talks, and many other toys. He is the cutest and most spoiled kid I know. I love him!
