Well, after being fat for most of my life, I have decided that this will be my year. I'm hoping that having some strangers read about my struggles with weight loss (and my use of crafting as a distraction for eating) will be more motivating.
I started today with a Slim-Fast for breakfast. Not sure why because those things aren't the most enjoyable, but its better than not eating which is my usual habit! I also went to the store last night and stocked up on frozen meals for lunch -- healthy ones -- and some other healthy snacks.
My biggest problem is sticking with it! I have such a hard time making it past a week with any diet/weight loss plan. Yes, I have a limited attention span which is why I usually have about 5 craft projects going at once and it takes me forever to complete them! Anyone have any ideas for making it past the first week?
Now I am not going to post weights (other than maybe pounds lost) here. As you can see from my picture, I am overweight -- actually I could probably be classified as obese. We will just leave it at that!

I hope you don't mind my suggesting Lean Cuisine meals...they are actually pretty tasty. I don't necessarily find them very filling so I always make a little salad to go along with it. Good luck with your goal! Stay positive :)

Thanks for the suggestion! I actually bought some of the SmartOnes over the weekend and I am going to try those for lunches. I'm so glad you found me!
