Ok...I am 46 and at least 15 pounds over my desired weight if I am telling the truth and 5 pounds if I have decided to lie that day. I am very good at lying to myself and most times I tell myself in the mirror, "You look fabulous", however my mirror only reaches to my chest. It does make the lie easier. Every week I tell myself that I will do something about this weight and I never do. I have many excuses that are valid on their face however it does nothing to alleviate the fact that I must get serious soon. The reason is that my husband is coming home soon. I know for certain by July and with good luck it could be earlier and that is the reason for my serious face on the problem at hand. When he left me, I was 125 pounds and 6 years younger. I am now 15 pounds over my desired weight. Do you see what I did there. I did not actually tell you how much I weigh. I did tell you how much I used to weigh, but that is not my desired weight. I am too tall for 125 pounds, I looked anorexic or bulimic or some disorder. Let's just leave it at the fact that I need to lose some excess baggage. Well this blog is not about me losing weight, I just needed a starting point and that is the first thing that has popped into my head. What is really will be about is how I can start writing again. I am not a great poetic writer with deep thoughts and much angst, but I can write about everyday life and with humorous slant on things. I can't decide if I should start at the beginning or current day or just bounce around my life. I am good at bouncing around so that seems like a good way to start.
