Happy New Year!

This New Year's Eve was spent with awesome friends.  Meagan, Brian, and the kids came down from Prosper and stayed at Nick and Laurie's house.  We got together and grilled and let the kids play on the 30th, went to Bouncin' Bears on the 31st, and ordered pizza and played with fireworks that evening to ring in the new year!  We had a great time spending time with them!  A casual and laid-back few days spent with friends that are sisters to me!

This year has been a huge year for me personally.  I have made very large lifestyle changes that I am very proud of.  I started off the year at 194 pounds and am at 151 pounds now.  I am very proud of the work I have done and hope to continue to lose.  My first goal was 160, then 155, now I think I will go for 144 by the end of the year.  This will be 50 pounds lost and something I hope that I can maintain.  I have not have fast food of ANY sort in a year, no beef since Feb of last year, and have not had any soda either.  I am so thankful to Curt for encouraging me on this journey by allowing my gym time, my experimenting in the kitchen, and helping me to keep on the right track.  I LOVE YOU!
