Happy New Years!

Hey everybody!  I wanted to throw out one last post before we closeout 2012.  I am thrilled and excited to be able to say that 2012 was THE year I made some changes in my life that would affect my overall health.  I have lost right at 20 pounds since April 2012.  This is the first time in a little over 8 years that I am doing something for me (on a health level).  And it feels good.

But enough about me.  I hope that my few (and somewhat scattered) posts on this blog is enough to at least spark a little fire under someone who may read it and be an encouragement to someone else.  After all, that is my point for making this little piece of collective verbage here on the web.  Just to be an encouragement to someone else.

So tonight a lot of us will probably put our diets aside for the evening.  Eat a little junk food, and remember where we were a year ago.  For those in Aurora, CO and Newtown, CT there are families who have loved one's who didn't make it to 2013.  My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to these families.  May God ever bless and keep them.

Through the tragic events, this was an election year and we were anything short of politics and the looming US Fiscal Cliff hanging over us.  Who knows what 2013 will bring?  I certainly don't.  But either way, 2013 is coming.  It's looming at the door and in a short while, we'll be watching the New Year's Ball dropping in New York City.

Here is my challenge to the few readers who may see this post: Forget resolutions this year; instead, make yourself a commitment.  Make yourself a promise to spend some time taking care of yourself this year.  I plan on pressing ahead with my health/fitness goals.  And am excited to see what this New Year will bring.

So pressing ahead, I'll see you all in 2013!
