What's on Tap for 2013?

Hmmmm....I have been thinking about lots of things.  I'm praying I will make 2013 a much better year then the end of 2011 and 2012.  I look back at the challenges experienced and I realize how much control I really did have over those situations and how my "over" reactions and negative perspective affected things.

With a New Year sitting right before me I have lots of good things planned this year.  One of the things I am most excited about is my certification.  I have a new set of books, a knowledgeable instructor, and determination to move forward with a plan and obtain that goal.

I'm not sure what is was that happened last week, but something motivated me to get back to taking good care of myself and work on my eating and maintain consistency with my workouts.  I'm excited about the new program we are implementing at work for 2013. I think that's playing a part in my attitude change.  We have a few things to sort out but I feel confident that we will have things ready to roll by the 2nd or 3rd week of January.  In that program I will have what I need to be consistent with my workouts.  So what about my eating...hmmm...well that is my biggest challenge and has been for quite a while now.  There were a couple of different factors that played a big part in during my weight loss days; one was support from others.  I've been at a loss as to how to build up that support again.  I know that once I get going and start losing it will happen automatically. People seem to notice the physical difference in me and comment which gives my confidence a boost. 

My challenge is gaining support prior to that point...that is what I can't seem to do for myself.  I do believe the solution is right in front of me...and it seems simple but something is holding me back.  I am actively being pursued by someone who wants to work with me and who I am interested in working with.  Flattering?  Absolutely.  It's exciting to me to see someone with tons of passion who just wants to guide someone so they can reach their goals.

We have set up a couple of appointments but life seems to be getting in the way and we had to reschedule a few times.  I seem to be procrastinating and I'm not sure why; it's something I've been praying about and I'm hoping I will soon realize what it is I need to do.  I think the main thing that is holding me back is that I have the knowledge needed to succeed from losing weight before.  I know what I have to do, I don't need to be taught anything.  I just need to get more motivation, confidence, and all those fun things I should be able to find from within but can't seem to just yet.  Something is telling me that I need to give things a good month or and I will have all that I need within myself.to be successful again.

I'm excited about this new beginning.There is much to look forward to, to learn, and to accomplish.  I'm praying for a wonderful, prosperous, and healthy new year for myself, my family, and my friends.  I'm ready for it all to begin!
