Week 3...

Okay, so not much progress.  No weight loss (although holding steady at 320 lbs. is still better than gaining!) and no inches lost.  I think a lot of it is stress, and the fact that because of work and school I've been sitting on my butt more than I should have been.  But that isn't an excuse, really, because I could probably find plenty of ways to move around more than I have been.

However, I have been eating a lot better!  I've had fast food three times.  That's only once a week!  Considering as how I used to eat fast food about twice a week, I'd say that's a massive improvement.  I've been eating more salad and vegetables (which I love, so it isn't really a chore), and I've been bringing my food more often than I've been buying things in the cafeteria at school.  Not that the school cafeteria is all that bad, but when the cheapest things available to eat are fries, cheese fries, taquitos, grilled cheese sandwiches, chips and hard-boiled eggs... well, I'm sure you can see that eating there isn't exactly the World Health Organization's idea of good nutrition.  The upside is that I am far more energetic since I laid off a lot of fast food and soda. 

Introduction-- Why I'm Doing This

Okay.  So, I'm starting a personal blog about me and my weight loss journey.  I know, it sounds pretty egotistical, but what blog isn't just a massive homage to the human need to feel important?  In all likelihood, no one will read this.  I wouldn't be surprised if no one reads this.  There's so many blogs out there, who'd really care about one more?  So, with that being my assumption, I'm going to be completely honest here.  If I eventually get readers and subscribers and whatnot, groovy!  Maybe what I'm doing here will help someone else.  If I don't...  Well, then I'm baring my soul in complete privacy despite the public form of mediated communication I've chosen.
