Happy New Year...

A few days late.  But hey, life happens.  And it has been happening a lot to me lately.  I am not ready to share, but once I am, I will.  I promise.

So what does 2016 look like for you?  Did you make your New Year's Resolutions?

In the past, I haven't wanted to make any, because I wasn't great at follow through.  (In case you couldn't tell by the numerous posts about how I promise to be around more often.  Hey, I'm human.)  But follow through is something I have been working on.  And I am getting better at it.

Anyway, so I didn't necessarily make any resolutions for 2016 on New Year's Day.  But I had made them before New Year's Day.  Of course, I want to lose weight, like most do, get healthy... yadda yadda yadda.  But I've been working on getting healthy for a while now.  I am seeing small results.

I have resolved, however, that 2016 will be my best year ever.  Big changes are on my horizon.  Not only in my personal life, but in my business.  There is an energy surrounding us right now...  What can I say?  I can actually feel these changes happening.

This past year, I have worked harder than I have in a long time.  And I enjoyed every minute of it.  I have met new, amazing friends, and strengthened old friendships.  But this next year is going to bring me to places I have never been.

So some of the things that this year will have for me are that I will be running another half marathon at Disney.  I can't wait, but then again I can.  Such conflict about this.  I plan to further my business and actually accomplish what I've been wishing for for many years.  And I will post many pictures throughout my journey.  I also resolve to be a happier person, to be more involved with my kids, and make a whole lot of new memories with them.  We made a lot this past year, but this next year will bring so many more.

So tell me what you are looking forward to in this new year.  Have you made any resolutions?

Motivation

So, since I got back from running the Glass Slipper Challenge, two things have changed about me.  I want to workout, but usually I get the motivation to do so late at night or when I have no time to work out.  And I just can't seem to get myself out the door to run.  I want to run.  I even signed up for a 5K color run, but it still hasn't motivated me to get moving again.

Part of my issue is that I know I can do a 5K with not too much training, and I know that they don't usually time this run.  This is for fun.  And I hope the friends that are joining me will see it as such.

I do want to sign up for more races.  I really do.  But Disney has spoiled me.

It's all about that bling now!  No, seriously... no finisher medal, probably no race for me. 

I mean who wouldn't love to have these around their neck?

Anyway, I also really want to start lifting and doing more cross training.  I want to get faster.  I have goals.

Part of my issue is that I don't really know what I am doing.  Going to the gym intimidates me.

What about you?  How do you keep yourself motivated?

See, I am seeing results, well I have seen some since even the beginning of the year.  I am down 6-7 lbs and I'm not sure about inches.  But my clothes are fitting differently.

It does excited me.  But now, I want to tone.  I want to work on my arms, legs, abs, etc.
