Getting this started....

So to give everyone a little background about why I'm starting this blog, I'll start by saying this is not your average weight loss story. There will be no boo-hooing, poor me, sad fat girl stuff on this blog. I have always been the skinny girl- I never struggled with my weight. I ate whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted and never really gave it two thoughts. I was always involved in sports, so working out was just part of my everyday routine. It wasn't until about a year ago that I noticed the weight was slowing adding up. My slowing metabolism and lack of involvement in sports after college had taken a toll on my body and my health. When I would try to work out, I didn't have the endurance to keep up with the types of activity that I was used to. After a year of sporadic dieting and exercising for a few weeks at a time, I decided to get serious and make a commitment to being healthy, not just losing weight. So, I'm using this blog a journal, to track my progress, my successes and my setbacks. Maybe my methods will work for some other people, maybe other people will have suggestions to help me. I'm using Weight Watchers to help me with my food choices, so you'll see me tracking points and logging my weekly weigh-ins. Each day I'll be posting my daily menu and my activity for accountability. I'll also post some of my favorite low-fat, low-calories recipes and meal ideas. I may include some off topic posts too, so thanks for checking in and check back!
