So it's day one. Day one of what? Of a new diet, of course! Which diet? The 17 day diet. We'll see how this goes.
Since I was formally a skinny girl, its hard for me to get on the diet bandwagon. I was the same size my whole life, (with the exception of when I got my tonsils out) until about 6 months after I got married, when queso and corn torillas became my best friends and my thyroid went on strike. Then at 11 months post nuptials, I got preggers and had the baby. And about 4 months later got the big "P" again and had the baby, of course. Since then its been ups and downs, mostly ups... (the number on the scale keeps going up, up and away!) Ha! That's ok though because with the help of a little friend I call, Levothyroxin, a little exercise, and with the honest following of this here diet, I will be back down to... smaller than this... sometime soon... ish.
I would post my weight and measurements, but that would be stupid. I don't need that kind of publicity. I will however update my blog daily... or however often with new stats, ie: I've lost 2 lbs! Yay! or I am a heifer, I ate an Oreo. But I figure it is a good way to focus on what I am trying to achieve and have something to fall back on when I am down about myself and need to think about where I have come from. Even if NO ONE ever reads this blog, I will still have it for myself.
And who knows, maybe someone will read this and find it amusing and uplifting.
