Starting Over. For the last time.

I did something tonight. I deleted every post from this blog except for the last one I posted. I am sick of reading back and seeing a very BIG trend in my documented journey. The trend of NO CHANGE. It was a blog of starting over. over and over and over again.

So I deleted it.

I am sick of seeing that as a reminder of each and every failure. Granted, there were some successes... but I am here, a year later at almost where I started a year ago. So, today is a fresh start. I for reals am starting over this time. I will write about the good, the bad, and the ugly. It really is time for some change.

Here are my goals for the months ahead:
  • Drink WAY more water and WAY LESS Diet Coke.
  • Get back into running. {I don't know how this is going to happen yet... but I know I want it to happen. I guess until I love it, I will fake it til I make it.}
  • Work out 6 days a week.
  • Eat better. More veggies and fruit, less candy and junk.
  • Be better at blogging my journey.
  • Ultimate Goal: to lose 30 pounds by May 1st.
Wish me luck, my friends!!

I think I am going to do the same thing, delete all the other posts, because I am worse than I was when I started. We can do it sista! You ought to look at the challenge I am doing and try and do it too!

Go Lisa! I've thought about deleting all my past failures too! I don't think I will but maybe ;) Good luck with your goals, they sound great! I think for my weight loss I didn't realize how big of a change I'm going to need to do to actually see results instead of staying the same, so we'll see how this year goes!

30 lbs?! You don't look like you even have 30 lbs to spare. Good luck with your goal though, I know you can do it! A secret for turning hate loving into love running? Find a route that you just love to run. It takes a few trys but once you complete a certain route you'll always feel proud. I'm excited to read about your journey!

Hey Lisa! You totally should do the cleanse. It was tough, as you read, but it was good to get me motivated. I want to know how your carbs thing is going. Let me know! or maybe I'll just call you! : )

P.S. You need to update this thing! :)
