Beginning of a New Year

Happy New Year Everyone! I have plans for this year! One of them being this ultimate goal of losing weight. I went for a very challenging (for me) hike yesterday with my family. We went up the Superstition Mountains. Was about a 3 mile hike, but mostly up hill. It was challenging, but I was really happy with myself when it was done. I definitely plan on continuing looking into hiking. With all the scenery and mountains in AZ, I don't really know why Jbob and I haven't done more. I am hoping that he will feel up to it on weekends for some variety on things we can do except sitting on our butts watching TV all weekend. I was really happy to know that I lost a lb this morning! However....I am sure I already gained it back because we had a scrumptious New Years meal consisting of turkey, stuffing, mashed taters, and rolls. So,...the no carbs diet isn't in effect until Monday. However, I am definitely focused on exercising since I can necessarily go on my high protein diet yet. I will be starting that on Monday...which all the turkey will help me with. Well...good evening and will write again soon.
