My Resolutions!

I have been stuck at a current weight for almost a year now. Then just two months ago I broke through it and lost that last 5 pounds! And more inches all around! I felt great. This is smallest I have been since having kids. I was so excited. But guess what?! The holidays came and went and BOY did they leave a mark! I am back up to where I was! Dang. Why is it so hard to lose that last 5-10 pounds and in just a short time gain it back!?  Five pounds isn't a lot, I know that. But it took forever to lose it in the first place, so it feels like a lot! And it's amazing the difference five pounds can make in my energy and feeling. I feel sluggish and gross inside. So next time I start to eat a entire 3 pound BAG of truffles, I need to remember how I feel right now at this moment and find the willpower to refrain myself!

To start this year right I have made some fitness goals for the month of January. So far so good. I have already lost three pounds!

My goals:

1. No eating passed 7pm.

2. Exercise everyday. (started P90X...again.)

3. No candy/sugar for the next three weeks.

I also set some personal goals to STUDY the scriptures, not just read them everyday, but actually study them more. And to listen better to my kids. And the last thing I really want to work on this year is to stop raising my voice to the point of yelling. I am not a huge yell-er, but when I do, I hate it. So when I feel myself getting to that point, I need to stop, take a breath, think for a moment then work on the "problem". As I know when I do that, the "problem" in hand, is much more minor and unimportant then I first thought it was.

Those are MY resolutions! What are yours??
