Realization & Committment.

So the day has come where I finally make the committment to well, commit! I've spent a lot of time researching diets and trying to figure out the best way to approach this new change, when really its simple. Just to do it. I've been making excuses for the longest time as to why I cannot get up off my lazy butt and exercise. And i've been trying to convince myself its okay to eat thousands upon thousands of calories a day and expect not to blow up. I've been in DENIAL.

After searching google, and chatting with others I've decided theres a lot that needs to be accomplished. I have made a list of objectives I need to complete (which I will post soon). I love the idea of blogging this journey. It'll help me better track my progress, keep me focus and help motivate me to stay on point. Hopefully I meet some supportive people along the way who struggle just as I do. I'm determined to not make this just another weight loss blog that gets abandoned along the way. I WILL stick to this.

In the meantime, I will continue my research on which plan i will use, but I pretty much have already decided that I'll be doing Weight Watchers (unofficially, basically without the meetings & without the price). And I have a gym picked out which is not far from my house. The place is called Sillouettes, an all womens gym that offers curcuits, cardio, classes and a program called "Healthy Expections" which i will explain soon. In the meantime I am in search of some WW Food Points Lists, recipes, and other inspiring blogs.

Daily Intake:

Breakfast: nothing =\
Lunch: 1 1/2 cup of Rasin Bran, 1 cup of 2% milk
Snack: none
Dinner: spaghetti with meatballs, 2 pieces of garlic toast. iced tea.

exercise: walking uphill aound campus.

edit: i've realized that by skipping breakfast i was really hungry this afternoon. I will need to make sure i eat breakfast, lunch and dinner to avoid binging. I was tempted to go for 2nds at dinner, but i chose not to because I will not fail again. I will allow myself one more snack, but no more eating after 8:30 pm.
