Intro

Ok so I feel like I needed a way to deal with the fact that I may be an angry, cranky bastard for the next few weeks so I decided that I would jot down my thoughts in this here blog. I have never blogged before so bear with me...I'm a newbie.

So today I start day 1 of my weight loss journey. As most of my friends know I am having Lap Band surgery next Wednesday morning. I know that some people may think that this is a bad idea but most of those people haven't been big their entire life. And for the people who say that I am just being lazy, well they can suck it. I can honestly say that I have tried everything and I feel like a yo-yo. Well enough is enough! The lap band is a way to help with portion control. I will still have to be responsible for what I eat and how active I want to be. So today is the start if my road to thindom...if that's even a word :-)

I will be posting to this daily. My first post of the week will be with my weight and a pic of me so I can see my own progression. I am sure the rest of the weeks will be filled with me bitching about what I can't eat and why I don't wanna get my lazy ass off of my couch.

So this is it...wish me good luck on this trip. Lord knows I will need it!
