Goals

When I started this weight loss journey, my goad date was May 11.  I wanted to lose 40 pounds. 

Today is May 11.  I have lost 36 pounds.  I am four pounds away, but I am ok with that.

Yes, I am sad and disappointed that I didn't make it to my goal, but I am proud. 

I have accomplished things in four months that I never thought possible.  I never thought the words "I love to go to the gym" would come out of my mouth, but they have. 

I have walked/jogged a 5k.  And I wasn't last. 

I have hired a personal trainer, and even thought most days I want to kill him, I am impressed at just what my body can do.

I may not be where I want to be, but I am closer than I was in January.  I will get what I want to be, it may take a wile, but I will get there.

Better

Last year during a book study at school we were reading The Energy Bus by Jon Gordon.  One of our assignments during our study was to pick one word for our year which is also based on a book, My One Word by Mike Ashcraft and Rachel Olsen. Long story short, instead of making a resolution for the New Year.  You pick a word.  If you go here  you can read about that. Basically, here is a simple three step introduction. Step One:  Determine the kind of person you want to be. Step Two:  Identify the characteristics of that person. Step Three:  Pick a word. Last year, I picked the word consistent. I felt that I did a good job being consistent. I started thinking about what word I wanted to use for 2019.  I have been thinking for a few weeks.  I have still been thinking about the person I want to be this year, and for every year for that matter.  I have thought about those characteristics of that person.  And today, on th...

Link Up

Finish The Sentence With Jake & Holly Hey!  I've never done a link up before but I thought, why not.  My page sucks and I'm almost embarrassed to link up and have some really cool "professional" type bloggers look at it, but oh well.  Make fun if you want, I'm a stressed out teacher, that hasn't even had time to blog in ages. Anyways I read these link up things all the time, always wanted to join in the fun.  This one looked fun...so here it goes.  I hope I don't suck.  BTW, I'm such I loser I don't know how to link up right, sorry I'm a failure My happy place... Walking down Broadway in Nashville, TN.  I love all the live music you can hear from every honky tonk.  Or at a musical.... Or at a live concert... Or the beach...  Pretty much if you get my out of the house or work I'm friggin' happy. Whatever happened to... Andrew Keegan.  I may google that later.  (and yes the Full House song popped in my head too...

Long Time, No See

I am not sure why I started this blog approximately a million years ago other than I enjoyed placing my thoughts together.  I also enjoyed feedback from my friends, even though I figured they were just being nice because they are my friends.  I know I will never how some great blog.  I don't have the time to figure all of that out.  I don't have the know how to code and make it all pretty.  And I'm ok with that.  Hopefully you all are too.  I will never be a fashion blogger, or fitness blogger, or any one of importance.  And that, too, is ok.  I just spent an embarrassing amount of time going back and reading some of my former blog posts.  I'm sorry that I subjected you to that.  2011 was a long time ago.  I was a 25 year old, single, overweight, third grade teacher. So Allow My To Reintroduce Myself Hi!  I'm Megan !  I am now a 32 year old, overweight, first and second grade math teacher.  I like to ...
