My 2012

WOW! It's hard to believe that a whole year has flown by! Now is the time many people start thinking about what they want to accomplish in the new year. Lately there have been so many things on my mind that I want to accomplish in 2012 that it has made my mind spin. So I have decided to look at some different areas of my life and pick one or two things that I would like to work on in 2012. So over the next couple of days I will tell which area I am going to work on and how.

1. Health
I know I say every year that I want to loose weight and become healthy. Just like a lot of people it sticks for about a month and then it goes out the door. This year it's going to be about making peace with body and food. My faith is extremly important to me and up until this point I haven't invited God on my journey. That is what will be different this time, I can't do this without God's help. I have read a wonderful book called Made To Crave by Lysa Terkeurst and will be doing an online bible study with this book. I have to admit that I haven't been so nice to myself, picking myself apart everytime I look in the mirror. That is something that I am stopping NOW. I won't get anywhere with that type of thinking. The other thing I will be doing is an online class called Body Restoration put on by the ladies of http://www.bravegirlsclub.com/. I can't wait to do this and face some of the things I haven't wanted to deal with. Then I will also be doing a bootcamp starting at the end of January. Until that starts I will be doing Zumba 3 times a week. When I start to lack motivation I will draw close to God and read books about people that have done it already. To say I will never eat mexican food or pizza again is just crazy! So I will come up with a menu and stick to it every day then on the weekend if my family wants to go out to eat I can enjoy it without feeling guilty. I think this will help me feel less deprived. I have gone back and forth about if I should weigh myself or not. I have decided that I will once a week on the same day every week. I have to remeber that I am a Jesus girl and that number is not my worth just what my body weighs. Tomorrow I will let you know about the second area that I would like to work on.
