Gained or lost weight? I freaking GAINED!!! While running I gained 5 freaking pounds. How unfair is that? I wasn't running to lose weight, rather for stress and exercise. But to GAIN rather than maintain or lose. I call unfair.
Predominant feeling in 2013? If I had to chose one "feeling" to sum up 2013 I would have to say content. Overall it was a great year. Sure I stressed, I cried, I ran, I jumped with joy. But I end this year with a sense of contentment. I did the best I could and am happy with where my family is today.
