I have fat ass and I can not lie...

I'm having a hard time getting started here. I think I first attempted this over a month ago, and maybe I was drunk, but I just trashed whatever I started and let it go.

So, I'm fat. And I have a few ideas how I got this way. I just can't seem to get myself going on a "weight loss journey," but I think that if I commit to it by blogging about it, even if no one else reads it, it will be out there, on the internet somewhere, and this might just be the foot up my ass I need.

My sister reminded me of this MadTV skit:

A few years ago, I needed some CPEs, so I took an at-home course about personal organization. The woman who wrote the book (whose name I can't recall) seemed very practical, but also understanding of how people's lives become so cluttered, and how difficult it is to just throw things away. One point she stressed was something like, "if you haven't used it/worn it/looked at it in the last 6 months, throw it away." Some of her advice must have sunk in with me, because when I got around to following it, I must have donated the book to Goodwill. This is unfortunate for me, because the book included a very handy template for a day planner, and I've recently decided that the best way for me to get my shit together is to start organizing and planning my life.

So, anyhow... I think if I examine my life and my historical fatness,  organize myself, incorporating some adjustments, I will have won half the battle.
