The 365 Day Turnaround
In case you missed number 12 of my 2004 End of Year Survey, I am really proud of my friend Erik. He told me that my weight loss actually inspired him to go public with a fitday journal to document his progress with his weight. Then he decided to take it up a notch. He's going to make 2005 a year of change...lose weight, get healthy, get out of debt, and most of all concentrate on things that will make him happy. And he's going to publicly document it. He's going to "try everything" and let the world know how it turned out so that you (yes YOU) may benefit from his mistakes and achievements. So, everyone, please check out The 365 Day Turnaround blog, and spread the word.
BTW, you may noticed that I never once said he is "trying" or "planning", but rather that he IS "going" to do it. I have every confidence in him. I KNOW that it can be done. In October 2003, I decided I wanted to change my whole outlook on life; I wanted to stop having low self esteem and start being happy and becoming a better person. In December 2003, I really decided to attack my weight...I've gone from a size 16 to a size 9 or so (and I'm not done). In March 2004, I changed my spending habits, and I have a plan set in motion to get out of debt. Most of all, I am *happy*. Truly and sincerely HAPPY. Erik is one of the neatest people I know and am so thankful to call a good friend. He can do this. I have no doubt.
Update: You're quite welcome, Erik. :)
