Third Time's the Charm

Alright, this marks the 3rd blog I've had and I have high hopes it will continue on for a while. Blogs are interesting, they're a permanent record of a period in time, one that's been captured for all the Internet to see. So, blog #1 was a crafty blog, I was super into making cards and scrapbooky stuff. As is often the case, it started to feel like work. I was designing for a stamp company and having to make and publish at least once a week just became tedious. I still have a room full of craftiness. During that time, I went on Jenny Craig and started a year long journey to lose 50 pounds. It's interesting, because I associate that craft with, for lack of a better term, "Fat Lara". Sitting in the room cutting tiny pieces of paper and gluing them together is something Fat Lara did. New Lara is interested in healthy eating, staying active and trying new things and that's what I want to focus on in this blog. I have 3 loves, 1 being cookies, (I do love me a nice cookie), cardio, (mainly running) and clothes, which I've always, loved, I just love them a little more now. So, come along for the ride, I'll be trying new things, taking pictures with random animals, embarking on an up-coming 21 Day Purification Cleanse, trying to lose these damn 10 pounds I gained last year and shooting for a sub 30 minute 5K. It's gonna be interesting!
