The Battle of the Scale - Fit v. Fat

I’ve debated sharing this here mainly for fear that I will fail and look like a fool. :) But, like most things in my life, committing to them publicly (while scary) generally gives me enough of a push to be successful. So here it goes...

I am overweight. Phew! I said it. Ok, so that’s not so shocking to anyone, especially me. But that doesn’t make it any easier to admit to anyone other than my bathroom scale. I have vowed to take better care of myself this year and one key part of that is to lose weight. I need to lose 30 pounds and this year is the year it’s going to happen. Come hell or high water (or a lipo clinic in Mexico) this is MY year!

I turned 29 in October. Next up...the big 3-0! There is something about a milestone birthday that causes you to reflect on the past decade and forces you to want to do better in the next one. I have decided why wait for the next 10 years to get it right? I’ve been "losing" weight (and finding it again) since I entered my 20's and I REFUSE to carry this weight into my 30's. I am tired of planning to lose it and am ready to just do it!

So if you care to follow me on this journey of The Battle of the Scale - Fit v. Fat edition, check back often for updates that will probably be filled with more 4-letter words than you can count!

Oh and for record keeping purposes, I’m down 2.5 pounds with 27.5 to go!
