funny day

today was a funny day.

kind of cool.

kind of rainy.

kind of like the world was holding it's breath as it waited for a change.

today was a change for me -

i'm taking new action to meet my goal for not-fat-by-forty

(i know that's a terrible thing to say but frankly, let's be honest, I'm not kidding anyone

except maybe myself.)

So it was day 1.

It's called the South Beach Diet and yes, while it is restrictive and perhaps somewhat unfashionable

I lost a lot of weight on it 6 years ago.

I was reading in an old journal about when we started (fella and I are doing it together)

and I weighed more then than i do now (by about 10lbs) 

so I feel like we can do it.

I know we can do it.

It's time to take charge and feel good about ourselves again.

So here we go ~
