First I'd like to admit this is my first attempt at a "blog", so here goes...

January 1 is historically a day to start fresh. To put the past behind and look towards the future. For the last 10 years it seems I've been making the same resolution: to lose weight and get fit. But it's never really stuck. I've always stopped after a month or two. I've allowed myself to believe I was too busy to get to the gym. The one weekend of "cheat meals" wouldn't be that bad, I could start again Monday. I would always end up getting frustrated and disappointed with myself for failing. Well this year, although my goal is to ultimately lose weight and keep it off, my main focus is to live life like a Daisy. What does that mean? Daisys make us smile and just look happy! I want to live my life full of adventures and happiness. I want to feel joy each and every day just to be alive and well. And I want to share this cheer with others too! I also don't want to feel disappointed in myself for my setbacks, because I know I'll have a few. I know I won't be perfect every day but that's the beauty of life! We all get to learn and experience new things each day with the choices we make, and also how we react to other people's choices. So starting today I'm living life like a Daisy! Hopefully I'll have some great stories to share along the way. Happy New Years!
