2012 was supposed to be my “year of yes” - saying yes to new experiences, foods, activities, etc.  I was going to reach my goal weight by June, run new races and distances, and I started this blog as a way to get me focused on my theme for the year.  The blog was also supposed to help me focus on the fact that I don’t want fear to hold me back, my weight to be a defense mechanism, or inertia to keep me from making progress towards a happier life.

So this week I’m working on a 3-month progress check, examining different areas of my life and whether or not I’m successfully navigating my weight loss and my happiness.

I took the weekend off from the phone and internet - no facebook, no twitter, no tumblr, and minimal time with friends or family - and focused on me.  I cleaned the fridge.  I did 6 loads of laundry.  And I poured my heart out into a notebook (always my go-to when I need to write from the heart) what I’ve been feeling about my life lately.
