Welcome

With having gone back to school this past year I have looked at other things that I need and want to do.  So I started making a list. Wow was there a lot.

Some of them were needs: lose weight, finish school, give up sodas, etc.

While others were wants: visit Europe, go to Disneyland, fall in love, etc.

As you can see I have somethings that I want to do, but I also have things that I need to do.  So here I am inviting you on my journey. My journey to healthy living. My journey to fun and adventure. And even a little journey in story telling.

While I am starting this new journey with my number 1 on my list, my need to lose weight I am going to reward myself with some of my wants as time goes on. I am also open to suggestions for things to try as a reward as well as things to try to help achieve my goals.

My name is Samantha and I am over 30 years old.  I am overweight, which I think holds me back.  I am not very outgoing (something I wish to change about myself).  I would rather stay inside and read a book all day than most anything else.

My time is mostly used with studying and working but one of my new goals is to make time for some of the things on my list as well as making time to workout each week at least 4 times a week.  So this journey of mine will also include time management.  And making time for the things I wish to do.
