Starting at Square One

Good Morning and Happy Wednesday!

I'm writing this blog for my peace of mind and for general therapeutic purposes.  I have managed to get most of my life in excellent shape while my physical self has been allowed to fall apart.  I am 46 years old and feel about 70 most days because I have let my weight get completely out of control.  So now it is time for me to take care of me!  I am meeting with a doctor on Monday August 30 to discuss lap-banding and whether that will be the right treatment for me.  Until then, I am going to be watching what I eat (not dieting - just no snacking and portion control) and starting back on an exercise regime.  It will feel a lot better going to talk to him if I've made a beginning. 
This blog is another beginning. Every other time I have been successful in taking off pounds I have written about it.  Most of those musings have been in paper journals, but I've decided for this last journey I will make the record public - hopefully it will garner support from friends and family when and if I make people aware of my plans.  Until then it will just be good therapy...
