Decided on blog a facelift

Decided to give this blog a facelift. I've been posting in it for awhile, and while the camo was nice, it was also dark. So I tried to brighten it up a bit...maybe make it a bit more motivational. What do you think?

I didn't chow down on everything in sight today, but I wasn't fantastic either.

Food
Breakfast
Whole wheat bagel and whipped cream cheese

Lunch
Small broccoli and cheddar soup
1/2 a turkey sandwich (mustard, tomato, onion, lettuce)
Oatmeal raisin cookie (my weakness)

Dinner
Slice of lasagna
Side salad

Misc
White Russian (it IS the holidays...)


Exercise:
Walk the dog (~2.5 miles)
Evening run (~1.5 miles)


....so, still no Jillian but I have been walking to dog regularly and I'm going to start back trying to run again. It's been raining so it's harder to get outside.

I've really lost my motivation lately -- I'm hitting that "depressed about my weight" but it's easier to eat another cookie than to do sit-ups place. I'm really hoping that the kickboxing class starts up at the gym this new year...will definitely be doing that if I can. Also, ab challenge with Chappy is still on for spring break.

Also, I've added a "Stats + Goals" page where I'm listing my current stats and my goals. Feel free to suggest goals. I'm kinda running out of them, to be honest. I don't wanna reward myself with food, but I want to try and save money, too, so I can't say "shopping spree!!!" or anything like that. Also when I find a tape measure I'm going to add measurements, too. I'm going to update my stats the first of every month. I wanted to get rid of that ticker thing because it was kinda a downer to see how far I still had to go. One of my goals as of right now is one of the shirts for sale here. I really like the "shut up and squat" one, but I feel like if I were to wear that any place OTHER than the gym, I'd get really awkward looks. I am a fan of the "fall down seven times..." since that's been my mantra all along (THANKS Japanese proverbs!) but the "strong is the new skinny" is also pretty stellar. I'm debating making that one (strong is the new skinny) a "goal payoff" if I can get below 18/19% body fat (ie, can I trim fat from my inner thighs and arms...which might take a whole other year).

Anyway...

Soooo, overall....thoughts?
