In the beginning...

To blog about my journey…or not to blog…that is my dilemma.
Really, who wants to read another blog about some fat person’s attempted journey to forge his/herself into a more healthy person?  Aren’t there already a bajillion similar blogs out there?!  I suppose there are and quite frankly, I think this blog is more for me than it is for you. So…if you don’t want to read it, don’t.  If you do want to read it…do.  I am pretty sure I don’t have anyone following this blog at this point in time anyway.  It isn’t like I broadcast that I was going to do this.
So what exactly should I write about?  What I eat?  What exercise I attempt to do?  How much water I am drinking?  What I am feeling physically?  What I am feeling emotionally?  What I am thinking? What my goals are? Are they really goals that can be accomplished?
I guess I could start with the UBER UGLY…the where I am starting at place.  I only have measurements, I am afraid of the scale and I have promised myself that I would get on it only on Saturdays and since today is only Tuesday, you’re shit outta luck.
Measurements:
Right bicept:     18”
Left bicept:       18”
Right thigh:       33.5”
Left thight:        33.5”
Right calf:         18”
Left calf:           18.5”
Chest:               58.25”
Waist:               61”
Hips:                70”
Neck:               17”
Head:               23”
As for the head and neck measurements, we were simply fooling around by then.  It took a lot of patience on the part of my friend to take these measurements, as I was NOT forthcoming with them.  I am 36, but you would have sworn she was wrestling a 3 year old having a tantrum in the bathroom.  The numbers may be off a little because of this too.  Eh…we tried.
In the meantime, I can hear all of the “not good food” screaming out to me to be eaten….and all I can do is try to hide.  I keep repeating the following mantra:  FUCK YOU & YOUR SNACK CAKES LITTLE DEBBIE!

Test One

*FURROWS BROW*
I GUESS (add exaggeration here) I can PLAN (add more here) to not feature spicy (no problemo) or fatty (OMG NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO) foods. Maybe this would actually be a good challenge to say...plan not to have these things at least 8 hours before bed or something like that!

Side note: remember those lists from yesterday...remember the pie I had to make...yeah...I told you I was bad FOLLOWING (what is it with me and exaggeration today?) those lists...that pie didn't get started until 1am and finally made it into the fridge around 2am. I am worried too, because as the AMAZING (gah! I did it again and this time with arm gestures) chef that made it, I didn't have a chance to test it before it was whisked off into the sunrise. I sure hope it is okay. Oh and I made 2 right...cuz I was *cough cough* LAZY (ugh) and didn't want to make the crust I bought them...and they didn't have the 9" crusts, only the smaller ones, so the filling amount was too much for one pie and BOTH (add in some serious facial dismay) of those suckers got taken this morning. NOW (some head bobbing) I will have to make another one for a girlfriend of mine. NOT that they are HARD to make (I am gonna knock myself out with my flailing arms), but I had 2 made already and we REALLY won't need more than the one tonight! *SIGH*

Oh and this sleep track thing is working...*insert crazed laughter here*
Either the 2 alarms on my phone didn't go off or I slept through them AND my bedside alarm did go off, I thought I hit snooze, BUT OF COURSE my brilliant self turned it off. I woke up just in time to clock in at work...too bad I was still at home and in desperate need of a shower. So I called in late, frollicked in the shower, played with the kitties, stopped for a Frappe....then moseyed on into work. Ya see...over here in this lil' ol' western town we mosey. (you soooooo do not want to see me pretending to wear and tip a cowboy hat right now!)
