My 2009 goal.
I’ve finally convinced myself that at the beginning of 2009 – at least sometime before the end of January! – that I will find a gym, enroll in that gym, and start exercising along with watching what I eat. I am determined to lose the weight that I’ve gained over the past seven years that has left me feeling tired and out of breathe when doing the smallest of things; I want to feel comfortable in clothes and be able to wear different styles without feeling like everyone is looking at my rolls – I want to be healthy so that one day I will be able to look good when I get married and not have any major complications getting pregnant.
I’ll never resort to taking pills like a natural appetite suppressant because I want to do things the traditional way, not to mention I’ve always been weary of things like that because of how they can effect your body. I want to exercise and I want to cook better meals for myself which means finding healthy recipes for the foods I already love. I plan on starting a fitness blog of some sort to keep track of my progress; I haven’t decided if I’ll make it a public blog or keep it private but either way, it’ll keep me motivated and on course with things. I need to lose 80 pounds and I want to have do so by the time I graduate from KU which SHOULD be in May of 2010 – that gives me a year which I think is feasiable. Wish me luck.

I think that’s a great goal! I wish you the best of luck with it. I think the idea of keeping a blog with it will really help. I started a diet blog when I started my diet and it has really helped.

Good luck! It is so annoying to try and lose weight… easy to gain and hard to lose. I was doing really well for awhile, going to the pool every day, but I started another job a couple of months ago and haven’t done so well since then. If I could convince myself to go to bed early, wake up early, and go swimming around 5:30 or 6:00am every morning, I’d have it made in the shade! But, I’m a night owl… so I’m still working on it!
