Resolutions

It feels a little weird to post this, but I know some of you will want to see if it you haven't already. Yesterday, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution ran an article about sticking to New Year's resolutions and included me in the story. Though my weight loss journey did not begin as a resolution, I absolutely resolved to change my life. As a rule, I try not to make resolutions that could turn into big, fat fails. Instead, I try to make fun ones. Last year my New Year's resolution was to accessorize more. This year, it's to get my clothes tailored when they need it.

But whether you made a New Year's resolution to lose weight, or just resolved in general to get healthier, remember--it's a journey. Not something you decide to do for a little while. This is for a lifetime.

You can check out the AJC article here.

I saw it and showed my family and told them all about you as if I really know you. That is what blogging will do for you.
Love your resolutions. Do you have a g good tailor? I need one!
