Diet: Day 1

Hello everyone,

Day two of the new year, and it was very COLD!  I didn't do anything very exciting today- I got a sweater for Christmas that I had to exchange, and I ended up with a wire bucket (for magazines) and a picture frame for the living room.  So it wasn't a bad exchange in the end.  I also went shopping at a few other places, and ended up at home watching some Netflix before writing this blog.

Day 1 Weigh-in: 274.6 lbs. 
                 Goal: 225 lbs.

That is my weigh-in for Day 1.  I will be weighing in each Friday and tracking my lbs. lost on here.  No- this won't turn into a blog completely dedicated to dieting and fitness (I have a life... I promise!)  But every Friday I will do a quick little blurb on my weight loss journey.

Now, I know I promised a review on my Nike+ shoes yesterday, but since I was unaware of the gym being closed today I wasn't able to go and try them out.  I did however find a great app to help me lose weight, it's called My Fitness Pal.  So far it's pretty great!  You just have to answer a few questions about yourself and your lifestyle, and it will calculate your daily caloric intake, track your exercise and your weigh-ins.  You can also add friends on there as well, so it's kind of like a weight loss Facebook!  And did I mention the best part?  IT'S FREE!  I will be working out tomorrow and I have my iPod playlist all set up (too bad I don't have any Van Halen yet). 

So keep warm outside folks, and drive safe, this year is off to a cold start!

Until next time-
