Happy New Year!
Wow, it seems that 2006 went by pretty fast and 2007 is here! 007– the year of James Bond! How cool! 🙂 Anyway, I thought that I would write down some New Years resolutions that I would try to do this year. It seems that sometimes I follow them, and sometimes I seem to “forget” them! 🙂 Not this year! Here are some of my resolutions:
Lose my Throwing Weight and Join Jenny Craig: Well, I have gotten a head start on that one! I joined Jenny Craig along with my Mom in November, and I have lost over 35 lbs in just about two months. I still have a ways to go, but I have made good progress on it! Mom and Dad have done GREAT so far on it, and we’ll be healthier and happier with the weight loss!
A picture of my former self– this was taken at the 2000 Golden West Invitational where I was throwing the shot my junior year (I won :)). During that same year, I weighed my heaviest, and in this picture– I had already lost a lot of weight. This picture and several others keep me motivated on Jenny Craig! 🙂
Not get emotional about food; change goals: When we joined Jenny Craig, we got a book and one of the sections that it had in it described what type of eater you are. I am what is called an “emotional” eater– which means that I feel that food is essential to have and I put a huge value on it, and it would be a reward for me. So– what I am going to do is if I want to reward myself– I am going to either get myself a movie, get my nails done, or whatever– but it won’t be food. 🙂
Well– that is about it! 🙂 I hope that you all have a New Years and a great day!
Best Wishes,
Karen
