I decided that this was going to be my time to shine. 2013 was going to be lucky for me, born on a friday 13th has always meant the number 13 is my lucky number lol.
2012 was such a life changing year, that may sound dramatic but after a week in hospital you quickly get your priorities sorted. so much happened that change the way i looked at things, alot of events that no-one even knows about, but the outcome to all of it was positive. 2012 ended on a good note and i had, and still have, every intention of 2013 being even better.
At the beginning of the year I decided to have a "Bucket List" for this year, just 2 or 3 goals of what i want to achieve. I took some time thinking about what i want to do and still havnt decided on everything but what i did know is that my weight was at the top of the list. i dont have any doubt i can do this, how fast i dont know but aslong as it comes off. As big an achievement as that is i didnt want to stop there, i want to share my journey along the way, hopefully i can motivate or inspire others to do the same.
i read, as i often do, the ww magazine and after reading a column i decided my bucket list challenge was to try and become a ww columnist, i want to share my journey as i go with as many people as possible. a chance to share a story of a normal person, who rightly or wrongly doesnt do much exercise, doesnt like salad or many vegetables and who wants to follow the plan she believes in, while living life as normal.
2nd on the list is an idea or maybe a dream i have had for a while now. I want to be on the cover of that same magazine, i have talked about doing this when i get to goal for years, just never got to goal to apply. My old Leader, Anne, heard me say it many a January but never got to see me get there. I am pleased to say even though she has retired from WW she is still a friend through facebook so will see me get to my goal this time round.
Patsy Kensit said in the magazine that it was a huge achievemtement to be like the other ladies that had been on the cover "with that smile and proud sparkle in their eyes" I too want to have that Sparkle !
I hope i can report back sometime soon to say i have achieved some of my 2013 bucket list - Watch this space

Just stumbled across your blog! Just reading your back posts and wanted to stop by and say... I was born on Friday 13th too! Had a rubbish 2012, decided that 2013 is my year to shine! Was going so well at WW, having lost 11.5lb, but then had a big 30th and put back on 10lb, oops!! Trying to get back to it now and I also write a blog, so decided a few weeks ago to incorporate WW into my blog. Any tips would be great, hopefully I soon will be able to share some success also :0) I'm here if you fancy a read http://mrssammyb13.blogspot.co.uk/ Sammy xx
ReplyDeleteHi Sammy, thank you for taking the time to read my blog, it is still quite new to me as only started it this year but I enjoy writing it, it has help put things into perspective a few times. You will soon lose it again, just refocus and get back on track. No expert with WW either even tho I should be the length of time I have been following it.
ReplyDeleteBut what I will say is stick it our and you will get there, it works.
Good luck x Lisa x
