Every Journey Begins.... Mood
Tuesday, June 3, 2008 | A Breaking News story

so welcome to my first step...actually more like 101st step but we won't be dwelling on the past here; at least not too much. This Journal is my attempt at staying on the wagon this time around. I figure if I force myself to think about my weight loss journey often then I am more likely to stay on track. Some statistics for those of you who are curious:

 

38 

5'5"

259 lbs 

 

A little background as well: I am a former Marine who has been way too buys taking care of everything in his life except the most important thing...my health. I was in shape at one point (many many years ago) and would probably be unrecognizable to my Marine Corp buddies if they saw me now.

 

Anyway, enough of that crap! I'm here now and I am on the road back to good health and a hot bod. If you are reading this please feel free to reach out and say hi. I could use all the help, encouragement and friends I can get to get me through.

    Keep journaling and reaching out for support, this is a wonderful site with caring and compassionate friends who are reaching for the same goals on their own individual journeys. The knowledge that is shared and the (((hugs))) is amazing and was crucial towards my success.
