Alright. This is my last stand, my declaration, my throwing-of-the-gauntlet, my chain mail glove slap to my own face. I am 25 years old, and I refuse to be out of shape any longer. I am going to start being the active person I am, and that starts now, with this blog.
Wait…how does one start being active with a blog, exactly? OK, the blog keeps me sitting at a desk, but since I’m here anyway all day working, I might as well use that seat-time to have some record of this adventure – plus maybe a little accountability, if someone stumbles over here.

I have no firm plan right now, beyond getting in shape. Over the next few posts, I’ll add my stats, my weight/size goals, exercises, diet, etc. I’ll also try to find some sort of layout that will keep those things showing, sort of a running tally. I want to update those once a week (especially the weight and size), but other than that I also plan on blogging about the whole experience, my own history and hangups about weight loss, size, the pressure on women in our society to be thin, my favorite flavor of ice cream…basically any and everything that comes to mind, that might either help me, or help anyone else. I am well aware that mine is not a unique goal, and I shouldn’t have to do it alone.

Welcome to my blog.
