Viva la Food!

 I like food. I don't love it. Don't need it beyond survival but my main problem is that when I'm bored...I eat. I'm pretty sure that's got something to do with my current overweighted-ness (like my new word?)

Like last night. Somewhere in my subconsious I *knew* that getting the new House Burger (absolutely divine - a MUST try) at Jack in the Crack, the seasonal Pumpkin Pie shake, fries AND 7 piece jalepeno poppers wasn't *really* needed. In fact, I couldn't even finish it all (except that burger --- go out, get it. It's worth the 5million calories/fat grams). But I got it. And O.K., I did give the Pumpkin Pie shake to the kid, and started passing out the poppers before I'd even take a bite of one...but c'mon. That burger isn't called a HOUSE for nothing. It's friggin' HUGE. I was full after only a few bites and yet---and yet---I polished it off. Why? Because it was GOOD (no, I don't work for Jack in the Crack. I just really liked that burger)!

But yah, ok. If I'd listened to my stomach and paid attention to the way it was stretching and the sudden urge to unbutton my pants, I might not have acid reflux this morning (blech).

I did however, opt for the medium. That's me; always thinking ahead (haha).

Anyway, the purpose of this whole post is actually to begin a daily counter. An online journal of food.

So, breakfast:

1 cup cooked beans
1/2 cup spanish rice
1 tbsp sour cream

...and a few seconds ago, a 'fun size' Nestle crunch. Whups.

EDITED TO ADD: I don't know if it was me or what but I am totally paying for that Crunch bar. I don't even like the things but I ate it anyway and ewww, it must've been bad or something because that chocolate was NASSSSSSTY. That's what I get for eating chocolate at breakfast (sigh). Will it stop me...? Uh, probably not. But no more Crunch's I'm sure.

The Battle Begins!

Well, I've done it. Set up the blog that is. Haven't done much to it but maybe --- just *maybe*  --- I'll play with the template a bit, customize it up and make it look nice. After, say, I lose my first oh, I dunno...10 lbs? That's a good motivation!

So yah, hi, I am, er, the Over Weight one. I used to be a lovely size 8 and I would very much like so get back down there. For now tho, I'm stuck between 16 and 18. The absolutely largest I've ever been. I hate it. I don't have a double chin "sometimes" anymore, but a chin that's much larger and more noticeable than the one I started with.

Sux.

So I started this blog. An online accountability blog. I know it's a few days before New Years which is the time people usually post their resolutions but I figured resolutions never worked for me before and I could use the extra days. So here I am.

And here are my stats:

• 5'4
  
• Female
  
• 220 lbs (yes my drivers license LIES)
  
• Size 16-18
  

And my goals:

• 5'8 (not gonna happen, but hey, it's my blog and I can dream)
  
• Female (except for that 5 day time frame at the end of the month, I'm generally happy)
  
• 150 lbs.
  
• WEAR SHIRTS THAT SHOW MY ARMS!!!
  

So yup, this is me. For privacy sake, because I'm not sure just how far I am going to take this thing, I'll just stick with the no-name. It's kinda fun.

See ya on the blog!
