When I started this blog I was out of work and decided that I needed to make a change.  I planned on making posts everyday to chronicle my change.  The n I got back to work, in retail.  The hours always changed and it was not as easy to make my daily posts.  
This year my company lost its contract and did a permanent layoff of all its employees associated with its Verizon account.  This caused me to have to look for another position, and start from the bottom again.  I was hired by Verizon Wireless as a Consumer and Small business wireless consultant.  I still work the retail hours.  I now have a whole new set of performance metrics that I must meet each month.  It is quite a challenge to get used to.  I am finishing up my fourth month and feel like I am struggling.  I realize that there are a lot more aspects than I initially anticipated.  
I have also realized that changing my physical body is only one part of the wheel.  I need to put equal attention towards all aspects of my life.  


The lessons that I have learned over the last year about my weight loss journey are:

• My diet is my biggest problem
• Make a meal plan
• Planning each workout to be effective
• Set smaller goals to remain encouraged 
• Consistency of both workout and diet

I will take these things into the new year to make a more positive change towards my physical well being. The holiday's are almost over, and its time to get back into the game.
