Decision made? Decision made!

DAY ONE:  JULY 18, 2014 
So, here I am. Sitting at my computer, at almost 9:00 pm, deciding to make a life change. I am deciding that I will get fit. Of course that means to lose weight, but I really want to be fit. I want to be able to play volley ball with my kids. I want to run. I find myself trying to remember how it feels to run. To run, so fast and so far, that you are laughing and winded and free! I want to do that again. So I am sitting here. I know, this is not helping getting healthy Beth, more time on the computer, come on woman. In essence though, it is. I am going to let it all out. I will have a place to scream, vent, celebrate and cry. Like me, love me, hate me, I am going to do this. I have a goal. I am going to be 39 next month. I want to run in a 1/2 marathon by that time next year. I feel like I can do it. I know I can. I can commit. I can do this. I will do this. Now, I will be signing off and getting off my fat ass and doing some beginners yoga. That is the path I am taking first. First I am going to start to build my strength (core) and flexibility up. Then I will decide from there. I am committing to do 30 minutes of yoga daily. I really hope it is semi-easy, because I have never done it before. But I have danced, and it made me feel like I was flying when I was young. I will feel like that again! Wish me luck!
