Happy New Year

You know, my wife and I NEVER do the resolution thing for the new year.  NEVER.  We figure it's just a short term thing that's usually doomed for failure.  However, this year we started working on a list of things we need to do and it just happened to coincide with the new year.  It was actually a spontaneous thing, but I'm glad it happened. 

So, I'm back on the health kick.  What makes this time different?  I'm not sure, but I've convinced myself it is.  Simply put, I'll eliminate soda, increase my water intake and limit calories.  I'll also exercise 5 times a week.  I'm not going to obsess and I'm going to set my goal at 1.5 lbs a week.  I'll be 39 on June 6th.  That's 22 weeks and a target loss of 33 lbs.  Tomorrow I'll weigh in and we'll see what I need to weigh by then.  I sould be close to breaking the 200 lb mark.

We have also decide to be more organized around the house.  It's something that we both are at work, but for some reason have not let it into our personal lives.  In the long run I think this will help me because it will probably help me feel more in control of my situation.  I don't necessarily have a need to be IN control, but I don't like things to be out of control.  Does that make sense?  It does to me.

Anyway, I'll weigh in tomorrow morning and we're off!  I hope everyone has a great New Year. Good luck with those resolutions!

 OH, yeah........GO IRISH, BEAT LSU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
