Goal

Short post, just so I get it in writing. My goal is to lose 5 lbs by March 1. That will be 185. :)

I am Stronger than Food

^ This is my new mantra. I am stronger than food. I will not let food rule me. Define me. Craze me. All it does is provide sustenance. I don't have to give it the power to make me happy or to make me cry. Mind over matter. I will do this.

Why, Hello 2015

I obviously am not that great at keeping a blog. But, being that it's a new year, I figured it couldn't hurt to put my goals down in writing. :)

You know how when you see someone you haven't seen for a while and they ask what's new? My answer for the past 5 years has been nothing. Absolutely nothing is new. I know that's not true, but the small things that have changed are not exciting enough to share with the acquaintance. I want to change that. I will make this the year I'm excited to share about.

Resolutions. I've made them. It's the year I don't break them.

This year I will:

Loselbs. in 2015

I have fitness and health goals every year. And I sort of do them every year. But I never get where I want to go. I want to finally feel better. This is the year. I will do this. 50 pounds puts me at my goal. I want to finally feel better and I want to do it before I'm 30. I've almost spent 10 years not loving who I am. That's crap. I love me now and I will love my self when I reach my goal. 50 pounds is a 1 pound a week goal. That is not even bad! Doing this. I am also giving up cookies, candy and cake. It worked well last time. Adam is giving up soda. My starting weight is 189.6. Here are our before photos:

I'm going to put more effort in at work. My goal is to sell 15 life insurance policies in 15. The more invested in my job, the more bonuses we'll get out of it. I know I could be a lot more productive than I am. I'm going to make my 8 hours a day worth it

I am a Black Status Presenter with Younique. I know it's in there. It is me. Today I may look Blue to the world, but in 2015 my Black will shine through. I'm good at this. I'm good at make up. People love me. The only thing holding me back is lack of effort. On the same subject, I think I have finally found my passion. I want to be a professional make up artist some day. My sweet mother in law gave me some books on looks that I am already just loving. I will watch professional videos and learn from them until I have the money to attend professional classes.

Well. There it is. And the potato believes. So I believe. This is the year!

Until Next Time,
