Happy New Year -belated-!
So I wanted to stop in and wish all of you a very Happy & Prosperous New Year 2007
! 2006 was a bad year for me in many ways that I'd rather now say, but now we're in 2007 and I plan on this one being a lot better and happier *fingers crossed*.
So let's see, what to report. I got a new MP3 player for Christmas and hopefully my sports arm band gets here soon so I can use it
. I got some new clothes from my MIL and some other type of clothes from hubby
. The main thing I have to report is that although I haven't lost a lot of weight, I lost enough inches to fit into this jacket hubby bought for me back in 2001!!! I kept it because I have never been able to wear it, but now I finally fit and with some room to boot!! ALSO, I can now wear medium sized clothes!! I finally cleaned my closet out fully and got rid of all my big girl clothes because I have no intention of EVER letting myself go the way I did.
For those of you who have low self-esteem... self improvement is a big self-esteem booster! I feel so much better about myself than I have since before I had my kids. I had to stop blaming other things in my life and making excuses for myself and looked deep inside and know that if I was going to change the way I look and feel I had to do something about it myself. Yes, there are people in my life that care and love me for who I am, but I have to love myself first (and I'm not talking about conceit) to really give 100% of me to everyone else
.
Happy New Year to all of you wonderful people out there!!


it's up to us to love ourselves and to get ourselves in gear and feel better about ourselves!
