Looking forward to 2010 - I'm doing a half marathon in December 2009 so with that stepping stone I'd like to do a spring marathon. I still need to pick one out and figure out the training plain but that's what I'm looking foward. What are you looking forward to in 2010?

2009 - New Year, New Me, New Attitude
-- I've been waiting on my hystorectomy surgery for a few months (multiple hassles plus the holidays) so I've been in a motivational 'holding pattern'. One of my goal for 2009 is to lose another 25 lbs to get to 150lbs and then reassess my look and health. Another goal is to run a 5K and the World Wide Festival of Races - Kick the Couch. It will definitely be a couch to 5K since I'll be in recovery for a few weeks. Surgery is on Feb 2nd.

2/7/09: Surgery is done and I'm at home feeling pretty good. it's been 5 days since surgery so moving slowly is not too bad. I've been listen to my body going for mini-walks or just trying to take naps. Today is a nap day!

....

2008.. after a year of different struggles of being a widow alot of my changes are going pretty good. I have more 'up' days than 'down' days and I'm working on challenging myself to jog a 5k - see July 19th blog.

.............
2007 was a difficult year, I became a widow on July 5th, 2007, and I'm really just getting back in gear. Overall I'm doing ok, except I'm not taking care of myself very well. Oh I eat and eat, a little sleep now and again, but that's about it. Time to see if I can get moving again.

First huge step in taking care of myself is to get Gastric Sleeve surgery. Feb 1st is my surgery (tomorrow as I type this) and I'm very excited about my new 'bod' to be. A new beginning!!

Here is a HUG, to get you thru the days. Always remember you are not alone. This journey is long and slow if we are going to do it right. It's a lifestyle change and not a diet. And it's OK to lose the UMPH to get MOVIN' again and be on the right track.

But we are SO WORTH IT, to continue the struggle UPWARDS towards beating this BATTLE of the BULGE that so wants to BEAT US DOWN.

But I say NO, NO, NO!!!!!!!!!! It, LBS, will not WIN, WE WILL WIN!!! YES, WE ARE WOMEN, and WE ARE STRONGER THAN LBS!!! Hugs, Anna

Hi Kris!
Thanks for stopping by my page. I was beginning to wonder about the challenge. There has got to be away to put a spark under these girls. Maybe send them an email or something, I don't know. But if if it's just you and me, so be it! I'm good with that too! Have a good one!

Hi, Kris. It's good to be back in the challenges. I let myself get out of shape and gained back all the weight I lost. Now I'm getting back on track.
