Well, it's 2012 and this is the first post I've made on here in some time. I'm hoping that I can be more consistent with this going forward.

In my ever present quest to lose weight, I've done absolutely nothing over the past seven months. In fact, I've gained 7.8 pounds, going in the wrong direction. I've got to do better, if only to improve my health. I've got Type II diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. By losing weight, I can help all three conditions and hope to live a longer life. This isn't a game, it's my life. And I'm the only one who has control over what I can accomplish. I want to have success and I think now I've woken to the realization that I need to do this. I have the determination and will to be successful. I'm going to be very mindful of what I eat, try to do as much exercise as I can and see if I can have success with this. I need to do it.

Just what I don't need... another journal that I won't keep up to date. You would think that since I like writing, I would be into this type of thing (?) What can I say? Maybe I will get better at this. (Famous last words!!)
