It Begins

Happy New Year. It was important to me to start this blog today, the start of the new year. I have always struggled with my weight and have decided to dedicate this year (and all the following years) to improving my health. Weight loss is the highest priority. I decided to start this blog as an opportunity to keep track of my accomplishments and failures (hopefully not too many of the latter). I also hope friends and family will use it to comment and give support and suggestions.

So it begins... I weighed myself this morning... ugh. No, I'm not going to post my weight. But I hope to report a loss by this time next week. My daughter and I are going to start the year by going vegetarian for a week. We are both excited about it but she is worried about missing the meat and I am worried about preparing it all for us as well as additional meals for the men in the house! But it's only one week.

My darling husband is also on the bandwagon and looking to improve his health as well. Doing it together should be helpful.

I have so much to say about what I want to happen, but I think I will take it one day at a time.

Thanks for checking in.... I am excited about this jouney.
