more than just talking about it

Ever feel like you have no choice in the matter? Today when I logged on my blog, my background template was gone. I knew that it was going to be removed by Friday, I just hadn't done anything about it yet and now, just like that, I was left with no choice but to get a new background. So I have spent quite some time finding one I liked and then tweaking it. And of course I couldn't get some things how I wanted them so I have spent far too much time on this, but now it's done and I'm pleased.

That's kinda how my weight is. I knew it was drastically out of control and I knew I needed to resolve it and I planned to resolve it, but I just hadn't yet. But now there are circumstances in my life that have made it imperative that I get this weight off. I have no choice but to get this done.

In the back of my mind I always felt that something drastic would have to happen for me to really do this, and it finally has. I am ever grateful that it was not a health issue that has made me get down to business.

I don't mean to be so unclear about why, let's just say it a financial matter and leave it at that.

But I am pleased that things are going well. I post the accountability because I want to remind myself that this must be done EVERY day and I also want to remind myself that I am indeed doing this!

I am excited by the idea of actually being thin and strong. Such good things to come!!!! :)
