The Vision

Since I was a little girl, I knew that I wanted to write.  My desire to write grew into wanting to be a journalist so that's where my educational focus led me.  Once I returned to school to begin obtaining my degree in journalism, I was inspired to create a list of other things that I wanted to accomplish, see and do.  Three years ago I created a personal goal list that included learning to drive (Yes! you read that correctly), learning how to swim, graduating from college, clearing my credit report, purchasing a car, and losing weight.  As of today, I have accomplished all of these EXCEPT losing weight.  I've changed my prospective date to lose weight more times than I can count, so why is this the only goal I can't seem to accomplish?

I realized with the other goals, I had people watching me, cheering me on and wanting me to succeed.  Everyone wanted to hear I was invited to join another honor society and was graduating summa cum laude.  I didn't want to fail for myself and I didn't want to let people down, so what was I missing in my weight loss goal?  ACCOUNTABILITY!  Yeah, my best friend would encourage me to stick with my routine and fight but my crazy schedule and other things in my life always took priority over my goal to lose weight.  So now that I've graduated school and I'm getting ready to start a job in my field, its time to take control of this goal and show the world I CAN DO IT!!

I will use this blog to share my journey to obtaining a healthy life: mind, body & soul.  I will share each struggle and victory.  I will share success stories of my family and friends.  Of course, I want you to share your thoughts as well.  

Join me as I become an open book and invite you to SEE ME NOW........
