I am so happy that a new year is upon us. Like most people, I feel like I need to wait for a certain date on the calendar to start making changes. I know that this does not make alot of sense, but it feels right.
I have been reading some very inspirational stories about women who have lost a ton of weight (ok, not a ton, but hundreds of pounds) and I figure if they can do it, so can I.
I'm way ahead of the game, considering I only have about 20 pounds to lose (but alot of flab to firm up :().
So I have made some New Years Resolutions.
The first one is that I will stop eating fast food for lunch. Let's face it. Is there really any healthy fast food?
Whatever I bring from home, even leftovers from a not-so-healthy dinner is probably better than a burger, fries and a Pepsi. I will also carry nuts or a nutrition bar in my purse so that I do not become ravenous before my next meal.
The next change I am making is to go to the gym in the morning and to walk/run in my neighborhood in the evening. I think that these changes in my workout routine, along with healthier eating will jump start my metabolism and send those pesky pounds packing.
Watch out 2012. Make way for a brand new me!
Rosella, you are already inspiring me!
