Happy New Year!

First post of the new blog in the new year. Yay!

I have a lot to do in the next couple of days. Mostly cleanup from the holidays, although the tree is staying up at least 'till Monday.  I can't be bothered with it today. :-)

It's a busy time of year and I know lots of people have the recent holidays (and the damage they've done to your wallet), but it's also important to keep your health in mind.

It's a cliche to think about starting a diet after New Year's, I know.  But it's a great resolution to make.  I myself have decided that my resolution for 2011 is to lose more weight -- as in body fat, since mine is approximately 30%.  I want to get down to 20 % body fat by May, which is no small feat but it's doable. If you have a similar goal, just know that it's not impossible. Just take small steps.  Rome wasn't built in a day.  You didn't gain the weight overnight, and you won't lose it that fast either.

My first goal this month will be to lose 5 lbs and hopefully lose an inch around my waist.  We'll see how it goes.
