One Day At A Time

Today is New Year's Eve, and for many, the day to set some New Year resolutions. I have been fortunate this year to spend the New Year celebrations with one of my best friends from high school. We've been lucky enough to reconnect around this time every year and I always come away from the experience feeling rejuvenated. She always seems to say exactly what I need to hear.

1. I am my own architect
2. I am worthy
3. I am free
4. I am released
5. I am a size 10

I'm starting this year, 2012, with a new attitude. I have already been wanting to change things in my life as a I get ready to graduate in May, most importantly, changing my body before I walk across the stage. I also really want to commit to being vegan.

Why? I am worthy and deserving of feeling and being healthy. The ways in which meat and dairy are processed in the United States basically ensures some kind of serious illness eventually coming from a meat based diet.

For this new year I am committing to the following positive beliefs.

1. I am meat free - meaning I eat only vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, grains
2. I am dairy free - meaning I eat only vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, grains
3. I am worthy and deserving of a beautiful healthy body
4. I am a size 8 (my point of measurement for tangible success - subject to change)

Happy New Year to me!!!
