### Hello and welcome to the New Year

As always- the New Year means resolution time. Most of us have at least one. I myself have several most, of course, will not last the month, but I am determined to keep at least one.
I want to lose 20 pounds. I know, I know, everyone says, “You not fat”- No I am not, but I am overweight and NOT as healthy as I should be. So that is my goal. I am trying to be realistic- My goal is to loose that 20 pounds before my birthday- in six months!! I believe this is a totally realistic goal which is important and includes watching what I eat and regular exercise. The first won’t be TOO difficult but the second has been practically nonexistent for the past few years. ☹
To help out, I’ve signed up at the following website Calorie Counter- which is a few site I log onto and it keeps track of my data. It includes graphs of weight lose and gain- calories eaten and activity/how many calories burned (exercise). It also has links to other sites with recipes and exercises etc. There is also a place where I can add friends where we can communicate.
SOOOO- I am asking for your help as well. Please ask me about my progress- maybe not everyday, but a couple of times a month just to keep me on my toes. Also, if anyone else would like to join me, you are more than welcome to. I can add you as friends on the site and you can add me. Let me know. (Mom and I talked. Keryn- well you can try, but no matter what you do- I doubt you will be loosing any weight between now and June- July even!).
Well- I’ve been writing this blog for hours now. Shauna keeps coming in to talk and now it is after 10. I go back to school tomorrow- so I NEED to get off and SLEEP. (Which is as important as eating right and exercising- at least for me).
