Life is all about the journey, not the destination.

Last Fall I set a goal of getting my weight down to 149 pounds and wearing my size 12 jean by my birthday in 2013.

My birthday has come and gone (Feb 6) and the bad news is that I am nowhere near 149 pounds. The good news is that I am wearing my size 12 jeans. I completed a 10 mile race in late September and I completed the WDW Princess Half Marathon at the end of February. It's about so much more than a number on a scale. I am healthy and fit.

Last Fall I set a goal of getting my weight down to 149 pounds and wearing my size 12 jean by my birthday in 2013.

My birthday has come and gone (Feb 6) and the bad news is that I am nowhere near 149 pounds. The good news is that I am wearing my size 12 jeans. I completed a 10 mile race in late September and I completed the WDW Princess Half Marathon at the end of February. It's about so much more than a number on a scale. I am healthy and fit. More so than I have been in years.

I am losing weight, but at a painfully slow pace.

I am still doing my Jillian Michaels DVDs faithfully. And I will continue to run. My official time for the Princess was 3 hours 41 minutes and 17 seconds. I have signed up for the Tower of Terror 10 Mile in October.

“The one thing all famous authors, world class athletes, business tycoons, singers, actors, and celebrated achievers in any field have in common is that they all began their journeys when they were none of these things.” Yet still, they began their journeys, Mike Dooley

“In the beginning, the price of giving great love is risking that it won't be returned. Until you understand, of course, that great love is always returned. With interest.” - Mike Dooley

“I do believe that the single most important thing I could ever share with you with regard to maximizing the health, harmony, and happiness in your life can be summed up in just two words: 'Love Yourself'” - Mike Dooley

Have a great weekend
