A New Year


We all set goals for the new year. This year I WILL stick to them! The biggest goal for me this year, is to lose weight. The actual number of pounds isn't the biggest concern. I want to lose inches and get into a smaller dress size. Our family has decided to do our own version of "Biggest Loser". Instead of just putting money in the pot and the winner claiming that pot, the money is going towards a plane ticket. The majority of us live on the West Coast but my brother and his little family live in Atlanta, so we don't get to see each other very often. So the winner, the one with the highest percentage of weight loss, gets to either, go to Atlanta or come to California. It's going to be great! To help me out and WIN this competition, I have a food journal and exercise plan. We'll see how it goes!

My friend did something like this and it was great. It is always nice to have a big motivational prize at the end, but really the best prize is feeling better and looking Great!
