I know that this is very cliché, but, one of my goals for 2012 is to lose weight. I know, I know, EVERYONE's goal is to lose weight. I have decided that I just really need to do it. Let's face it, I'm not getting any younger, and with some of the health issues that run in my family, I need to be taking A+ care of myself...and for the last couple of years I've been taking C- care of myself. It's time to change all of that.
Seeing as how I'm poor at the moment, I won't be joining a gym (that would be idiotic right now anyway because the gyms are going to be FULL of people like me, trying to make good on a New Year's Resolution). I do know that at the moment my main concern is what I eat. I will be following a Primal diet (see http://www.marksdailyapple.com for more information). I need to change my eating habits. Once I am a little bit more stable on that end, I will take up the exercise. I've done exercise before...it's not a "new" thing, but, I suppose I WILL have to be a little bit less lazy about it, lol.
I have recorded my weight and my measurements...in order to make this less humiliating than it already is, I'll be keeping that information to myself for the time being. Maybe I'll share once I make some progress.
I'm hoping that keeping this blog will keep me honest. I'd imagine it won't be terribly exciting most of the time, so this is mostly for my benefit, but, I will share so that you can read along if you so choose. I'll likely talk a lot about my dogs and my other goals for this year, which include improving my FINANCIAL fitness as well.
You can do it Kristin! If *I* could lose 80 lbs in a year, anyone can do it. :) I know quite a few people who have found success with Primal. Good luck!
