Time To Get Serious

I was considering starting a new blog to detail what I am starting now. But I realized that this blog is exactly suited to document my work.

About 9 weeks ago, I was ready to get serious about curbing my weight gain, getting back to exercising and giving myself the body I want. As you might know, (read below), I broke my arm literally two days after I started. That, along with the MOUNDS of stress from knowing if I would be able to pay my bills, left me in a depressed and sedentary frame of mind. I put on about 8-10 pounds in that time.

Well, my cast has been off for a week and a half. The arm is still healing. I need to stretch the tendons and repair my atrophied left forearm. I know I can't lift any substantial weight at this point. But tonight, I jogged. That is a less-impacting form of exercise, where the arm is concerned. I have, until I have lost 30 pounds, taken my last drink of alcohol. Water, milk and juice are the norm, for now.

My weight today is 212 lbs.
