NEW BLOG

My new blog is up and running. Still need to post a pic to go on there...Now I just need to get you all on board to put my new url on your blogrolls!

Please email me at loislanejudy at yahoo dot com and I will make sure you get the link! I have already put my blogroll to the right into my new blog.

I would appreciate if you would delete this blog from your current blogrolls. Thanks!

I'm very excited about having a new focus and a new look!

A woman changed

So the thing is, I’ve started a new blog. I mean, I haven't posted to it yet or anything, except one post. But I just haven’t had the time to put the bells and whistles on it, so I’ve not been writing here or there. I am focusing more on the knockoff bag theme and soon, my marathon training.

But today, I HAD to update!

Happy one year anniversary to me!

Today is the one-year mark since I turned my life around, started eating healthier and exercising. The one year anniversary of my rebirth, I suppose, as a woman who took charge of her life and cherishes it now.

To think. A year ago today, I was 193 lbs. At my highest, which was earlier last year, I was 204 lbs.

Today I am 164.5 lbs. (only 19.5 lbs left to go!)

A year ago today, I could barely run for a full minute.

Today, I am in day 2 of training for a marathon.

A year ago today, my thighs would rest and you would see cellulite.

Today, you see my quads.

A year ago today, I was alone, lonely and sad, even though I was generally happy.

Today I am falling in love (if not already there!) and only lonely when I choose to be. I am happy, period.

A year ago today, my hair was long.

Today, it’s growing back from being cut super short. A move I would never have done as my former self.

A year ago today, I didn’t get into a bathing suit last summer but once, at a family barbecue.

This year, I’ve worn a bikini on the beach.

It just doesn’t get any better than this. Although we’ll see, in 19.5 more lbs., we’ll see after a few more weeks of marathon training.

Who knows what the future holds?! That’s why change is good!

So happy anniversary to me!

It's a knockoff life...

I'm still here.

Details to come...
