New Year, new beginning!

Hello and Welcome!

 I would like to introduce myself and my new blog "2012 Just One More Mile".

    I will be blogging about my fitness journey, running, life, and other random things that come to my mind.  Nothing really of any importance to anyone but me, but I thought I would keep a journal on my year to reflect upon from time to time. 

    A bit of history on me, I am an RN.  I graduated in 2010, when I graduated I realized that I had gained back all the weight that I had struggled so hard to lose six years before.  So in January 2011 I began again, to date I  have lost 75 pounds, run three 5K's and attempted a 10K.  Right now I'm stalled on my weight loss and have been for about three months.....it's driving me nuts!  I know what I need to do, I know what I'm doing that is not helping, but I can't seem to get going in the right direction again. I have about 45 to 50 more pounds that I would like to lose, but right now I just want to see the scale move in the down direction!  I would also like to finish a 10K and maybe even a half marathon if I can get myself back on the right track.  I have plans to run a 10K with my cousin in June, I've never backed out of a plan before and I don't plan to now.

    My husband and I have moved twice in the past year because of his job, so I spent the last month and a half at home and that I'm sure has not helped.  I finally did get offered a job last week and should be starting this coming week or next.  It's not the job I wanted, but I really need to get out of this apartment and get going again or I will go crazy! 

    So there I am in a nut shell.  It's the last day of 2011, if I look real hard I think I can see 2012 in the distance........
