New Year New Me?

In my last post I talked about how much I have changed in the last year. How much I have grown into a surprisingly vocal person with a large passion for life. I have now made it to 2012 and am taking a look at what I want to improve upon this year.

For starters I would like to be in a financially different place at the end of the year. I am currently struggling for money but I am following my dreams so I can deal for a little while. I would like to end the year in a much better financial position and the only way to do that is through activity. I got up this morning, got dressed and was ready to start my day. Both my fiancée and roommate exclaimed in surprise to see me dressed before noon which is hilarious but probably something I need to change. One of my goals is to get up and ready for the day. Even if I'm not leaving the house I need to be focused if I'm going to make this work.

My second focus is my health, I have struggled for a long time with my stomach problems and because of that never really focus on eating healthy. I tend to focus on whatever makes my stomach not hurt. I am trying to turn that around. I have started Arbonne's 30 days to feeling fit program which includes a regime of vitamin/ mineral shakes, daily power packs, and healthy whole foods. I want to be healthier it is the bottom line, however a little weight loss is also necessary. I usually don't pay attention to my weight, I never really had to though throughout December I noticed a little more love handles to grab, my boobs no longer fit into my bras and my jeans no longer fit. So I got on the scale and was SHOCKED, I weigh more than I ever have. Not just a little bit more like almost at the max I ever thought I would weigh. So I was shaken and decided its time to step up, time to be responsible for my eating habits and hopefully through eating better I will not only weigh less but see improvements in my stomach pain too.

So I want to eat better, but I still have no desire to exercise, I have an aversion to it. I don't like it at all and I want to get in shape but I don't want to exercise. I don't know how to change my mind set in this. I need help with this. I'm hoping it will just develop, fingers crossed.

Bottom line I want to take it one day at a time, live in the moment and not dwell on what has happened. If I take a day off do not focus on that, focus on the new day and taking my life to a new level. I need to remember to take time to enjoy this wonderful life I have.
