New Year, New Commitment

Unfortunately, I had another car accident on December 8, 2008. This one completed totaled my little car and has put me out of commission for exericse and horseback riding for a while. My neck and back are messed up and we are now going week-by-week on whether I can start riding and working out again.

When I had a car accident on June 29, 2008 that did the same thing, I gained twenty pounds. I decided that this will not happen with this accident. Instead of feeling sorry for myself for the lack of working out and riding horses, I am using this as an opportunity to practice better nutrition.

I also set a very important goal for myself this year: take care of myself. My biggest problem with weight loss is that I take care of everything and everyone before taking care of myself. If I can put myself first, I believe my other goals will come into place.
