An Explanation..

While I'm not certain anyone will ever actually read this, I feel compelled to state my reason for starting this very self indulgent blog.

On January 1st, 2009 like so many people worldwide, I decided to make some changes in my life. So, I threw away the last cigarette in my pack, unsmoked, and purged my refrigerator and cabinets of their fatty inhabitants. Also, I made sure to inform everyone in my life that I was going to change. I was going to become a skinny non-smoker instead of a corpulent cancer candidate.

Well, one month, seven days, twenty-two pounds, and zero cigarettes later, I'm stuck. So I figure, at the very least, writing about how and why I'm doing this will keep me occupied through my cravings for MacDonald's and menthols. And if I'm lucky, maybe I'll figure out just what to do next on the road to thin.
