Resolution

One thing that I thought I wold never do is start a blog, but it seems to be all the rage with so many people. With this blog starting so close to the New Year, I thought I’d propose a resolution that I would really like to see come to fruition: To set aside more time for my personal life than what has been taken up by my professional career. Work has had me very busy (yet fulfilling) and after leaving my last employer (over five years ago), I vowed to do the same thing. Hopefully I will succeed just like with last year’s resolution: To lose weight. But little did I know that I would lose 40 pounds in four months. I attributed the weight loss more toward cutting back on my portions during lunch rather than any regime of exercise I was on. This led me to finally undertake a closet cleaning project and do some shopping for myself. To fit back into a 34 inch waist and go from 205 pounds to 165 pounds and maintain it for over a year has been great!
