I have been gone for quite awhile! Today is going to be short and sweet.  I have missed being accountable to myself and whoever reads this!  I have found out the hard way by doing that.. that I little by little as I slacked in tracking my goals and my progress, I FORGOT about my goals, myself and what makes me feel good and alive.  I have been back in the healthy state of life again for about a month and everyday is another day to learn, grow and become my best self!!  Excited to regain my momentum and this time...keep going!
