So after several weeks of not feeling myself, hating Dallas, and missing Austin, I sat down with some close friends and had open discussions. Some of these friends, including my best friend & roomie, probably didn't even know they were helping me figure out what exactly I should be doing.

After leaving work the day after Christmas, I realized that Dallas isn't making me unhappy, *I* am making me unhappy. If I want to enjoy my life in the city I live in, I need to make it work for me. For the past couple of days I began to think what exactly this means. Here and there a little spark would go off and I would realize, hey... that might just work. Let the New Me in 2009 begin!

I will update this blog often and report on my progress and even any slip ups I might have so if you are interested, check back every Sunday! Before work I will be posting new pics to show the transition (physically) of "The New Me for 2009" and the emotional/life moments will be reflected in this blog.

It is my hope that making small changes here and there will improve my quality of life for ME. That is the focus here. I am being selfish for one of the rare moments in my life and making it all about ME!

So... Lets begin...

I have stuck to my word, for the most part. I only worked out 3 times this past week but with the New Year Holiday and working, I am okay with that. I worked out a LOT last night and am truly feeling it today. Ironically, it hurts so good. I am a bit sore but at least I know the effort I put forth last night will yield results here soon. I think I will only post new pics every two weeks... I think changes will show better then.

Only working a 5 day work week this week, then back to 6 day work weeks for a few weeks. Its all good. I need my comp days if I still plan on taking my trip to NYC for my 30th birthday. If all goes as planned, I will be on a plane in 4 months and 2 days! Buying a scale this payday so I can track my weight as well.



Come back next Sunday for the weekly updates!
