Starting fresh!

The new year hasn't been all that horrible. February marks the start of a new journey for me.. wait, wait. Did I just say February? Is it really February already? Holy cow! I have been trying for some time to loose weight. And up until now I've done nothing to make that happen, I partly owe some of my hesitation to my addicting and oh so yummy white mocha's from Starbucks. I do hope he will forgive me for my abrupt disappearance. I will have to find another drink to fall in love with or to satisfy my need for caffeine. I can come up with any excuse really.. time, the kids, work, exhaustion.. some of the few I have used for my laziness. But it's a new year and it's time to take responsibility and make it happen. I really need to start spending more time for myself. And that doesn't necessarily mean outside the house ( though this is nice too ) but I can't remember the last time I relaxed in my big soaking tub, or did my own toe's, put on a face mask... These are the thing's I'm talking about. Just the small things that a Mom can do to make herself feel good.

Monday starts the new me. The me, on a track to a much healthier Mom, wife, friend and daughter. It's time to make smarter choices on what I put into my body. So, I'm going back on weight waters and I'm going to kick this last 40-50 lbs in the ass! Nursing Luke really had given me a kick start to loose some weight but I did nothing with it. I've managed to keep the 20 something lbs I did loose.With that said, I've decided to start a blog for myself to track my progress, feelings, thoughts and to remember how hard I worked to shed the lbs, because this time I'm going to do it! And to overall just feel good!
