Hi All and Happy New Year,
This is going to be a quick post but I wanted to get something out there to kick of a new year. Needless to say I ended the year with not really losing any weight maybe gaining a pound or two but what can I say it was the Holidays and who doesn’t like to eat during the Holidays? So I gave into the temptation of all those amazing holiday treats that we have come to love, and really that we only get but once a year. So as they say on the 2nd day of Christmas sugar gave to me two muffin tops and one giant food baby..ok so I know there are 12 days of Christmas but I figure to be on the safe side I just stopped after two days. So like I said weight lose 0 Food 1 but its all good New Year new challenges and new goals, but to set up my new goals I thought I would do a quick reflection of what this blog and this past year has done for me.
I Started this blog out as a way to keep me on track to lose weight give me something to look back on when I would lose my way and my drive to keep going forward, never really though any one would read it, really didn’t give all that much though to it. Needless to say I was very wrong with a lot of my assumptions about this who project of mine. Yes I did lose weight maybe not as much as I wanted to but it took 10 years to put it on, so I guess not losing it all in one year is not that bad, but what I was able to find through this last year and writing this blog was ME again, it help me face a lot of my fears and self esteem issues really made me dive into my problems and deal with them, which I don’t think with out this I would have pushed myself to face anything. I found that all though I am a shy person some how I didn’t mind sharing my life my world with others because as I notice the my blog was being read and by not only my family and friends but from people who I have never meet around the world which to me its cool to be able to share my ups and downs with so many, and to know that from time to time I would get feed back from people telling me that my post was what then needed to read that day to keep pushing forward, it help drive me to keep going with what I was doing to know that what I was saying was helping others, and I thank all of you for helping me through this very trying year, needless to say it wasn’t easy but I have learned so much from all of this.
So with all of this I feel that 2013 is going to be a great year I’m very excited for this year and everything that is has to bring. To be honest I haven’t been this excited about a New Year in well years and years and …. A LONG TIME, but I’m very pumped about this year. I have had that chance to face a lot of my demons last year, I’m living in a new place at the start of this year for once in a long time I have a plan and a path that I have set up for myself, and that is cool its not just some road that someone else has lade out for me or has take and I’m just fallowing its mine and that is for lack of a better word exciting. I have so many dreams and ideas that last year I could figure out how to make into a reality but this year I want to make them into a reality I want to push myself, my though be hind a lot of that now is what is the worst that can happen, it doesn’t work and I’m right where I am today. Fear last year was something holding me back I was so afraid to really push for what I wanted was really afraid to really be me and really all fear does is hold you back makes you stand in one place, and well I can’t stand standing in one place I like to move and see new things, so this year I don’t really have a lot of time for Fear some times you need to just jump and see what happens, the Fear of the unknown can’t hold you back from living your life. Which I total get and understand now. So as for this blog in my New Year I plan on keep going with this I like it, its fun, and really if I stop writing what would you have to read when your at work? Haha just kidding, but really my goal is to keep up with this and keep on sharing, besides you never know who is going to read it and get inspired to do something great.
Well like I said a short post to kick off the new year, and just think a New Year, New Me, New You lets go and make 2013 amazing.
Happy New Year All!!!!!
McKnight out.
