So close, I cannot taste it.

I'm almost there...only 5-10 more lbs. until I reach my weight loss goal I set back at the end of September. It feels nice to be close, and I'm enjoying the freedom I feel from not being so self conscious about my self. Not that I loathed my self 30 lbs heavier but it made me spend so much extra energy trying to convince my self that I was OK with the way I looked.

I've realized that shedding some weight rejuvenated my spirit and is allowing me to focus on so many other things besides food. For I was and will always be surrounded by food and great meals, but food does not have to run my life.

Life is lighter, I'm lighter and I am moving forward with a renewed focus and a smaller jean size.

It's been fun

I'm writing this entry as therapy. I'm officially wrapping up the holidays by re-capping and moving forward. I've had tons of fun and good times doing anything but thinking about work.

Uhgh...work. I've been off from the office for 10 days and I've almost forgotten what responsibility is. But I digress, this post is about the fun I've had, not the work that lies ahead.

Holidays 2005
- Christmas parties, dinners and gatherings
- late nights with even later sleepy mornings with no rude alarm clock awakenings
- agenda-less days
- birthday parties
- reflections and celebrations on the past 30 years-full
- turkey, ham and cake
- New Years party
- redneck fireworks
- long walks
- seeing and hearing from new and old friends
- new clothes
- new toys

There's no way that a girl could ask for more. I've been blessed beyond what I deserve and I know that 2006 holds great times full of adventure.
