Oh boy.........

     I'm back.  It has been MANY years since I have been on here.  In that time, I have had TWO more children, and we are close to celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary.  And with these 5 years, have come ALOT of extra weight.  But today I resolve....I will do this.  I will make the changes I need to make.  I will get into healthy habits.  I will not give up.

     I will not forbid myself from eating certain things.  Instead, I will CHOOSE not to eat those things that I know are not good for me.  And I will NOT shame myself if I do make a choice that may not be the best.  Because when I do that, I give up.

     My first goals are this: drink more water.  I won't even go as far as say drink ONLY water, just MORE water.  Second: move.  In some way, in some form, move.  No more afternoons on the couch, eating ice cream.  Third: make wise choices.  Instead of that peanut butter cup, choose and apple with peanut butter.  Instead of those chips, choose some carrot sticks.

     It is in these small choices that I will create these good habits.  And then I will add to those habits.  I will do this.  I will not give up.
