Wow cannot believe that....

there are only  10 days left of 2012.  As this year comes to a close, it has been a crazy year.  Started this year a whole better then last year, even if I was a pregnant cranky bitch.  So much has changed including me.  I made a resolution 8 years ago to stop making New Years Resolutions....haven't broken this one yet.  I instead set goals for the year. This has been a big year for me.  I did a few things I just did not think were in the cards for me...I had my daughter June 14th and I celebrated my first year of marriage November 4th.  I watched my weight balloon up with my pregnancy and by the end of it I was at the heaviest I have been since my late teens, early 20's....293 lbs.  I lost a bunch right after baby was born...got back down to 270ish within 6 weeks of having Abbie. Then a month later I went in for a check up and had gained back up to 283...13 lbs in a month.  I knew I had done a few things differently in that month but I also knew if I did not make a change....I would not live to see my daughter do all the things she wanted to do.  So I made a choice and started not a diet but a lifestyle overhaul on October 2nd.  There have been some stumbling blocks, some triumphs, and for once results.  As of yesterday's weigh in I broke 270...266.6 on scale.  I don't think I have been that small since I before got pregnant and when I had broken that it didn't last long because either A..it was a temporary diet or B..I got pregnant.  This has been a crazy year and while everyday I wish my Mom was here to see me as I have finally become stable, I know she knows.

So the Goals for 2013:
1. Stay on my weight loss journey and by November be down to 180 to start work on the last 40 lbs to be gone in 2014.

2. Finish my schooling and get a job working from home so I am still around for Abbie.

3. Work on my walking/jogging so I am running by the Summer.

4. Run my first Marathon in September.

5. Make the trip to IN and PA.

6. Have a happy healthy 1 year old in June who is almost running...remind I said this when she starts.

7.  Find and Move into the apartment/house that will be mine and my husbands home till he retires from Army in 2015.

8. Start planning and budgeting for husbands retirement

9. Start planning and budgeting for Wedding in 2014, well vow renewal.

10. Make this a daily blog...or at least weekly.

Well I have a lost of to do's for day...

Happy Dieting
