And so it begins!

Howdy all,

Soooooo....today I start my blog. Well, sorta. Some of you know this blog already, but I didn't really use it for anything. So now the plan is to track my weight loss goals, discuss issues I come across, and generally keep motivated on this long journey. I don't know how often I'll update this, though I firmly plan on updating at least once a week. The weekly updates will normally fall on Sunday, as that will be my weigh day, and I have the day off. In some cases, like today, my weekend was actually a workend, and MONDAY is my day off. SO....here goes.

I weigh.......530....ish

I bought a scale last winter, with the idea of keeping firm track of my weight. The only problem is that the scale's platform isn't quite large enough for me to keep easy balance. Because of this, the scale never gives exact. It fluctuates up and down within about a pound and a half to two pounds. SO, for weighing purposes I'll weigh two times, and take the middle. (So for today it ranged from 529.2 to 531.)

I don't know what all I'm going to be putting on here on a regular basis, but I think this is a good start.

Thank you everyone who encouraged me to do this. It means a lot to me
