I have never had a blog. Not really sure why I need to start one now. However, this is in part a try to figure out if I have something big to say. But also it was from my first thought a blog about being fat, thus the title of this site. Boring, huh? But lots of people are fat. Some days I quite like being fat. I bet there are other people out there who feel the same way, but hard thing to admit in today's world. So I don't want the fat thing to be the only topic I address. Being fat is hardly the bulk of my waking thoughts and not that interesting. However, it is the muse of this first post, and its topic.
I have not always been fat. In fact, I was quite skinny when I was little and pretty average weight throughout high school and early twenties. I was not more secure in my own skin when I was skinny. Despite what all the ads might have us believe. So inside I don't think I have changed all that much. How did I get fat? I like eating. Really enjoy food. I like snacks. I don't mind walking and exercising, but I don't have a drive to do any of it and tend to be pretty lethargic in my movements. Funny thing happened, I got fat. Sometimes it stays the same and sometimes it goes up. Every once in a while my weight goes down. Fat really bothers me when I run into people I have not seen for a long time. Also bothers me when I am buying clothes. I have never enjoyed buying clothes, even when skinny. So maybe that has nothing to do with fat. However, admittedly buying clothes is harder now, so I will count that as a bothersome thing about being fat. It also bothers me when I can't do things that I used to be able to do. That is the time I want to kick myself for all of the extra snacks and lack of walks. Most of the time though, I don't much think about being fat. So this year I am still fat. Pretty much the same weight I have been all year. However, the things I can't or won't do because I feel out of shape are starting to grow. Something needs to shift and in comes the blog. The thought being, if I do something more public, I would have to follow through with it. That is why people blog in the first place as far as I can tell. Accountability. This blog will not just be about weight loss and/or gain. That would drive me to eat more. Nothing like thinking about a diet to make one want to eat. Absolutely nothing. However, the blog will give me something to do instead of thinking about dieting or eating the next thing. Since I have mentioned the accountability word. Today is the start of week 1. I will not put my weight on the site. It is, quite frankly, none of your business. But I am at 0 in terms of weight loss. I only intend to weigh myself once a week. I will keep the some sort of track of that on the blog.
