A New Year.... another me.

Every year I promise myself that this will be the year. The year I drop the last 50, 40 or 30 lbs. The year I run that half marathon, 10K or marathon. The year that I finally prove to myself that I can do anything I put my mind to.

I guess I've done pretty good the last couple of years... maybe I should just keep trying. :)

I am back... at 183 lbs... and ready to get back in shape. I have a lot to work around this time. I am working full time at night and am home LATE. Its been a bad habit to come home, strip the uniform and then chow down before going to bed at midnight. I know better then to do this... but for some reason, it still happens.

My hands and feet are swollen from a lack of water. Seriously, I don't remember the last time I had a glass of water.

I am addicted to sugar again.... an addiction that I know I can break, but have  lacked the ability to lately.

I am stressed and depressed. Two things that go hand in hand in my life. This leads me to eating... a lot.

So, how am I going to change anything this year? Well, first off, I am going to get up and drink a glass of water right now (feel free to join me, I'll wait for you!)...........

That tasted better then I remember! Now I am going to go throw away all the cookies and junk food that is in my kitchen. Don't try to fool yourself... the husband and kids don't need to be eating that crap either..........

Now, I will make sure that I eat something healthy tonight before I go to work. Maybe a protein shake.

I will drink water at work when I can.... and when I come home I will drink more water and then go to bed.

There.... that's a good start. We'll work on it some more tomorrow...........
