This Blog's Purpose

The purpose of this blog is solely for me. The entries are nothing but my ramblings. I do no proofreading, no editing, no filtering. 100% honest thoughts. Will this help me lose weight? I don't know. We'll see. "They" say to keep a weight-loss journal. I've never done it in the past, and that didn't really work. So now I'm going to try it. I'm not sure who needs more luck, me, or anyone who comes across this blog and actually reads it!

WARNING!!!

This blog contains pictures that may not be suitable for some viewers.
Viewing this blog may cause side effects such as nausea and vomiting.
Do not view immediately prior to or following a meal. Unless, of course, you're trying to lose weight also, then I'm sure the pictures on this site will be a great appetite suppresant!

Goals

Apparently I’m supposed to set specific goals.  Short and long term.  I’ve always known this, but like the whole weight-loss journal, never did it.  This time I’ll give it a try.  Of course I’ve always made long-term goals:  lose such and such amount of weight.  Turns out that’s not good enough.  So, here are my goals:

Daily Goal:  Exercise 1 hour each day.

Monthly Goal:  Lose 8 pounds each month.  (I will weigh myself every four weeks – when I take the first pill in my birth control pack.  I just decided that differences in weight can be attributed to the time of the month.  I’m proud of coming up with this idea!)

Semi-Annual Goal:  Lose 50 pounds by my 31st birthday.

Yearly Goal:  Lose 90 pounds by Christmas 2010.

So far I’ve met my daily goal 3 times already this week and am well on my way to reaching my monthly goal.  Wahoo!
