It was in December of 2010 that I set out on a new path of health and fitness, and decided to share with you along the way. I'm very proud of myself and how far I've come. There is only one goal I had hoped to achieve this year that I will for sure have to do in 2012 and that was run my first 1/2 marathon. There have been triumphs and trials along the way this past year but no bad could ever outway the good that has come from this. In the past year I've lost over 20lbs, dropped several sizes and have maintained a size 4 for about 5 months now. And as for this blog, I never cared if anyone even read a single post, I knew it would still be a way to log my progress and vent my frustrations, but I like to think that some good came from this blog this past year also. It's made me glad to know that my honesty has been an example and encouraging to others. I've had people come to me for advice, ask my opinion, and look for ways to better themselves.
I decided to invest in myself this past year in a way I never have before and the return has been nothing less than great. I like to think I have truly changed for the better, a year later and I could never picture myself going backwards or letting go of this new love I have.
As the new year approaches I know many people are setting fitness goals. Instead of your goal being to lose "x" amount of pounds, let it be to not give up when it's too hard or no fun. To not make lame excuses. And to not give up on yourself!
