Welcome 2015!

It is amazing that I am trying this blogging again. But in reality I think I need it. Unlike the others that I have this blog is for me. It is my journey that I need documented. I need to see where I have come and where I am going and this is where I will do that.

It is January 7 of 2015......it is the start to the rest of my life.

Last year, I hit 315 pounds. well  325 according to the doctor. And if the number wasn't bad enough, the other news was. I was told if I don't lose weight, I would lose everything I ever held on too. I would lose my chance at a family, a chance to have a baby, I would lose what health I have and gain diabetes, I would lose everything because of my weight. That day I started a journey, I started losing weight.

Through out the summer I lost 20 pounds, I started advocare after that and lost another 15 pounds. I was down 35 pounds!!! And then I fell off the wagon. I gained back some of the weight and lost the person I was becoming.

Enter 2015.....I was 1 pound away from hitting 300 again and I cried. I told myself I would never be 300 pounds again and here I was, moments away from hitting that milestone. I hated that I had given up on something because that isn't who I am as a person. So I started Advocare again, I became a distributor and started losing weight and wanting to work out. I have taken on nutrition as a hobby and this is the year that I prove to myself that I can do it! My ultimate goal.....100 pounds in a year. To be under 200 in a year!

That number seems crazy impossible but I have amazing support backing me up. I have amazing parents and loving friends. This is the year my life changes.

So other then weight here are my resolutions that I am going to keep tracking on here:

1. Get a nursing job
2. Lose weight
3. Take chances
4. Do something I have never done before
5. Travel
6. Get my own place
7. Run a 5K
8. Go a year without a soda
9. Pay back my parents
10. Place God first in my life again

Ten things, and yes some are lifetime goals, some are this years goals. But this is the year I want to turn my life around to be what I want it to be. I want to guide myself and I want to be happy in myself.

Let's see what this new year has in store for me!
