New Year, New Motivation.

Happy New Year!  Wow, it has been a month since my last post! The holidays were crazy, and so much fun. Chaz and I went to Wisconsin for a week to celebrate Christmas, our anniversary and New Years...all in one week.  We had such a great week spending time with family and friends.  It was a nice relaxing vacation.  We spent Christmas at my parents house (well, we spent the whole week there actually) and all of our family came over on Christmas Day for a Packers party.  We watched the Packers kick the Bears butt, which made for an extra happy day! On our anniversary, we went and spruced up our house (still for sale! ugh.) in Sheboygan and actually spent the night there.  And for New Years we just hung out at my parents' house and had a couple friends come over there to celebrate!  The week flew by, and next thing I knew, we were back here in Virginia.

Up until we left for Wisconsin I was doing a pretty good job staying on track, until we landed.  No, I take that back, until we got to the airport! For some reason, airports are a huge challenge for me.  I think it is just the availability of all the the junk food and candy all around me.  It sucks me in, it calls my name, and I lose control. So naturally, I gained, and I am working on getting rid of that!  Yuck. It was such a crappy feeling, knowing I had just gotten to my 50 pound goal, and now I feel like I have ruined it.  But I WILL get back there and lose even more.  I promise you that, and myself.  

So after snapping pictures while we were home, I wanted to share a couple comparisons with you...obviously, the one above is New Years Eve 2010 vs 2011.  And below is our anniversary picture from 2010 and 2011.

Thought it would be fun for myself to see the comparison, so I wanted to show you too!  These are the things that keep me going.

Until Next Time...
