Getting a makeover, from the inside out.
It's about the journey, not the destination. And this journey is life long.
2013 is about me, being made new, from the inside out. It's about motivation and perseverance. It's also about struggles and defeat, disappointment and setbacks, but most importantly it's about discovery and change.

2013 is about me, being made new, from the inside out. It's about motivation and perseverance. It's also about struggles and defeat, disappointment and setbacks, but most importantly it's about discovery and change.
The low points are when we learn and grow, so this year I'm embracing them. My setbacks will not keep me down. I will reflect on the reason I made the choices I did, and figure out how I can avoid repeating them in the future.
I will celebrate my high points and successes, but learn from them as well, so as to be able to continue to succeed.
I am building a stronger ME!
A little about me: I'm 35 years old, married, had our first & only baby (a boy) in March 2009. I was able to lose all of my pregnancy weight shockingly quickly, but have a long way to go for the rest of it. I'm 5'6" and starting January 4, 2010, have 135 lbs to lose to reach my goal. I work full time in a research lab at a local University.
