New Year...New Me

So instead of making a resolution to lose weight this year ( because face it- it was broken by 12:01). My resolution instead is to make a better, happier me.

I thought about joining a gym, but like many don't have the willpower to actually go. And if I do go, I'm likely not going to put enough into it, ergo wasting my time and my money. And for those of you that know me- I don't dig wasting either!

So as I am on my 12 hour drive between Florida and Ohio...I am contemplating how I will go about making improvements to my mental health.

Then like a visit from the Angel Gabriel, or a scene from "Bruce Almighty" it comes to me....via e-mail.... Yes, God uses the Internet. My daily Groupon deal. A $400 Bootcamp program for $30. I contemplated wether to purchase, it's not near my home, is it a scam? Do I? Don't I? I did. Yikes....and I bought 3 of them!!! What?!? I just signed up for 18 weeks of Bootcamp. Sheesh....

Here is what I know about myself. I can be a self starter....when it comes to others. You don't have to ask me to do dishes at my in-laws, to make food when someone dies.... I got that- but I suck as self motivating myself. I hate the Biggest Loser show- because if I had a trainer, 24 hour gym and no home life I'd lose a crap load of weight too.... But if I'm gonna lose weight, I need a trainer. And not a cookie cutter trainer. But really, who has $40 plus to spend on that? Not this single income mom of 4.

So I look at this Bootcamp as my personal trainer. All workouts are with a trainer who themselves have lost significant weight. So I schedule my "evaluation" and here I sit, waiting to be evaluated. Let's see if this is the jump I need to begin my "new me" journey.....
