Happy New Year!
First of all, welcome to my blog. This is the start of the "end" of my journey. I've said this before, but hopefully this will be the last four months of what's been a five year journey.
This entire week, Janice and I had been planning to start our diet today. To end the year, we made a stop to Bake You Happy cupcake shop....well... it was cheaper to buy a dozen cupcakes than ten. So I bought a dozen. And knowing that we couldn't kill them all in one night, it meant delaying the start of the diet until Monday. And here's the worst part. I've lost my sense of taste. You'd think I wouldn't want to eat calories I couldn't even really enjoy, but I still crave the same bad food I always eat--even without being able to taste it. That's crazy! So today's diet included cupcakes for breakfast and In N Out for lunch. Nice.
I am going to start working out today though. So hopefully that'll help curb the bad cravings.
That said, I'm starting the new year with a goal to lose weight, just like everyone else. I've done it before, but have managed to put back on 30 pounds.
My other goal this year is to be on the local community college dive team and make it to the State Championships here in California.
I'll keep updates on my blog here throughout the next few months as I make progress towards my goals.
Happy New Year, and here's to everyone making and keeping this year's resolutions!
