Super quick entry:  Being on track while at work is much easier than trying to stay on program while sitting at home.  Day 4
Less of April is a blog about me. I am on a quest to make some major life changes. The main one is getting rid of some serious weight. Why blog about it?  First, I love writing venting long letters. Sometimes I send them sometime I don’t. (Trick I learned from my former shrinkette) Second, I think I am a frustrated writer. Good enough to put a decent sentence and idea together, but not good enough for anyone to care! I am tres doubtful that anyone will read my little blog, and this makes me feel really safe. If by chance someone does read this, maybe my experience will help him or her or theirs help me. I am going to start a list. I have a whole lot of work to do on myself. I don’t know about anyone else, but I live by my “To Do” list. So here goes. And the first thing, on what is sure to quite the lengthy list ,is: 1. Loose weight. More to follow!
May 25, 2009 Memorial Day! Well here is the deal about yesterday.   While I will not say it was a total success, I also will not say it was an epic fail.   I think that it was not in my best interest, to go to a BBQ on my first day on program.    (Duh)   But yesterday is done. This morning I ended up running around so I didn’t get a chance to eat a breakfast-y breakfast. But I did make myself a pretty good brunch.    “Breakfast” Ice coffee (with skim milk and 2 Splenda) Brunch: Turkey burger Large whole grain pita Chopped avocado Teaspoon of Dijon mustard Teaspoon of Ketchup Romaine lettuce Not sure what the deal is with dinner yet.   Hello! This it exactly what I was talking about. The planning is what kills me.   I need to plan, plan, plan.  Day: 2/2

First full day...

May 24, 2009 Today is my first full day on Weight Watchers.   And of course today I have a BBQ.   What to do? What to do?   I’m really not sure.   I almost feel like I am already failing for the day.   I haven’t planned at all. And that is key. You can’t eat well on the fly.   Fuck me. This is not how I wanted to do this. Note to self. Go shopping April.   Get food that will work.    And plan plan plan.             The thing is that I have to make it work.   First thing is to have a substantial breakfast.   Go get coffee.   And take it from there.   Maybe I should take some carrots for the road so that when I get there I’m not like a vacuum cleaner with the food.    Day: 1 of 1

A little bit about me.

Saturday May 23, 2009 I have decided to go on a quest and change my life. I am blogging to document that journey. I am going to do whatever it is I need to become a better, healthier, smarter and hopfully, happier April. My main reason for blogging and tweeting about it is to chart my path. Maybe people will read me maybe they won’t. It honestly doesn’t matter. I am doing this for me. I may keep it up and I may not. However, today as I write this the hope is that I will blog about my journey of self-discovery and change, about once a week, perhaps more if I am so inspired. I decided to go back to weight watchers. Back to weight watchers. Back. To. Weight. Watchers. I have been there and here before. I have been successful once. That is I was dedicated and on program for over a year and lost a significant amount of weight. I looked great. I felt amazing. I was sexy honey. Not at all thin, but just looking so much better. The whole thing, people were noticing and c
