I've almost hit it

I got on the scale today and I almost hit the magic number... 200 pounds. Yup, that's right, 196 pounds! It's time to do something about this, I'm only 5'5" and my weight has been creeping up for years. I thought a good start to motivating myself would be to come clean and blog about it. So here I am, standing up to say, "I'm obese."

I'm not sure exactly what I'll be blogging about. I guess I'll just let it evolve naturally.

Not only am I just 4 pounds shy of hitting the 200 mark, I'm also within a few pounds of the weight I was when I delivered my daughter, four years ago. Can't blame the baby fat anymore! It's plain and simple, I take in more calories than I burn. It's about time that changed.

Now begins the journey...
