The One Year Challenge...are you ready?

Okay Guys,

I am back. I have a little bit more time before I go to bed. So, I've been on this kick the past few days. I've been really thinking about my mom's death and thinking about her life. She was an awesome mother, but she just didn't take care of herself (health wise). The past 6 years I really haven't done too much. I've gone on a few heath kicks...the largest I've ever been is 215 lbs. I went down to 182 lbs. from 193 lbs. last year (I went through a lot of emotions and depression last summer...trying to find a job especially just right out of college ...nothing). I end up moving home to NJ in December of last year and put on 10 lbs. This year has been challenging for me. Not only physically, but emotional I have been through the ringer, but I have decided I am going to trust in my God and He will help me get better and be better to myself and my health.

I want to do so many things in life...I am an artist...that is what I went to school for and that is what I want to do with my life. I want to make an impact through that...the only way I can do that is by taking care of myself and living long enough to do it.

So, everyday I am committing to walking (in the future running) for at least 30 min./day at least 5 days/week. I am going to track my up and downs...weaknesses and victories through this blog. I am hoping that I can make some kind of an impact on others....I will share my vulnerabilities...anxieties...and woes! [there will be a lot of them! :)]

BUT I WILL NOT BE DEFEATED! [ she says in a dramatic way]

I invite anyone who chooses...to follow me...help support me! Maybe we can be an encouragement to each other. Lord knows...I NEED ALL THE HELP I CAN GET! Leave a comment on what you think!

- Sincerely,

DB
