I realize it's been the new year for 17 days now. But I sort of consider the new year to be "after Christmas" and I don't consider Christmas to be over until after CAC (so, you know, After Christmas After Christmas).
So, to recap last year's goals: I was supposed to lose 34.5 pounds....HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA. So instead I thought I'd gain 5.5. Whoops. This year, I'm going to be a little easier on myself. I should lose some weight, and I should definitely not keep gaining weight. But the truth is, the general weight I'm at isn't so bad. It's pretty much what I weighed in high school. I don't want to go back up to what I looked like in college--that was definitely unhealthy. But I look okay now, I feel decent now. I'm going to try and eat healthier to be healthy (I have slightly elevated cholesterol!) but the truth is I'm thirty, I've never been thin, I'm never going to be thin, and that's okay.
I was also supposed to focus on learning new things. I did read 17 books last year, which I think is pretty good, although truthfully not all of them could really qualify as learnin' books. I am going to try and read at least twenty books this year. I am also going to try and (!) spend less time on the internet. A whole night on facebook (several times a week) is really not healthy or productive for anyone. Damn you Mark Zuckerberg.
