Ok... enough of celebrations and reflections of a lovely year. The discipline starts NOW. The scale spoke to me in a language this morning that sounded somewhat like Linda Blair many years ago, and left me feeling like I wanted to vomit and spin my head 360 degrees as well.
Daily Mile will help me be accountable for my running journey this year. Weight Watchers journaling and Weight Watcher friends will helps support my food choices this year. Registered races will help motivate me to keep going.
I can do this!

Reflecting on 2011
What an incredible year! Alot happened and alot stayed the same, which is sometimes a blessing in itself!
Running: I managed to set and achieve some goals , which will hopefully set the precedent for 2012. I ran my first 10km race in May, which felt truly outstanding. Until I ran my first half marathon in October. With the exception of my children, Never did I feel such achievement and pride in myself. I crossed the finish line with a whole different mindset... 2012 I will run a marathon.
Weight Loss/ Lifestyle: Maintained my weight...again, a huge accomplishment for a gal who can gain a pound just looking at a bagel. Healthy eating and positive reinforcement of friends, family and colleagues all strengthened this and made it possible. I wouldnt be anything without these people.
Personal Life: fell head over heels , crazy in love this summer. A moment in time that was never experienced in my life , and perhaps may never again. So much tragedy behind it all, made it impossible to continue and will pull at my heartstrings forever. I will always love this person and we will always maintain our relationship at a level that works for us.
My Children: I am blessed to have happy, healthy, well adjusted children with two parents that love them unconditionally. We still cry and laugh and beam with pride at their achievements and their unconditional love for us..
Family/Friends: I am also blessed to have my family...my parents, my brothers, my extended family....wonderful relationships are fostered and make for an invaluable support system. My friends... I would be nobody without them. Every day....day or night, there is always someone I can turn to.
I am the luckiest girl in the World. I can only pray that 2012 will bring me health, happiness, and all the joys that were given to me in 2011.
Happy New Years!!
