Summer End

I wonder if one day when people ask if I have a blog, I'll surrender and give them Mr Bunny's blog site and call it a day?? I really really want to be someone that writes a few times a week. Reading other blogs brings me joy. And I'd love the written history for myself. But a few things stop me... I think I am a little reserved (or a whole lot) and I try to keep my private thoughts private. And time. There are so many things to do in this blessed life of mine... when should I blog? What should I write about? Well, as my weight loss journey starts again, I am going to try and use this space for just that. Maybe this blog will beless adoption, less Faith. But I need somewhere to help support my weightloss journey. I need support in getting my body to a healthy place and this is the best place I can find to document it. So, I missed my 40 lbs by 40 goal... I did shed 12 over the past year. But my new goal is still similar... I like catchy goals. 40 in 40 :) I turn 41 on June 12th.... which is exactly 291 days. Or 41.5 weeks... which works out quite nicely. I didn't plan it that way but clearly if I loose one pound a week, I'll be there. Here's a current picture....
(this is a pic of our finalization day for Betsy! July 3rd w/our lawyer) A motivation to lose weight is this: http://www.flagstaffextreme.com Flagstaff Extreme. We went this er while in vacation and we'll go back next year. I completed two of the four courses. While I don't think I'll even complete the Black course (it really is made for the gait of a man), I want to feel more confident on the course. It was fun but I could tell I was fat. Ugh. I'll leave you with a link to Betsy's first year video. What a sweet girl... she makes me smile all day long. http://animoto.com/play/MJwQ34TgXCcJA6aXRONKWg PS- the formatting is awful... sorry!
