Today I'm starting a dieting plan that's not really a diet. This is going to be a log of my journey to losing some weight. I doubt I'll make too much of a dent by my high school reunion next month, but at least I'll start feeling my best. Looking it will come in time. What spurred me this morning was reading an article about a 5 meal a day plan, where you just keep eating little and often. I briefly had known about that before, but have not been consistent with eating smaller meals. I'm not fat, but I'm not svelt anymore, either.
I'm 5 feet tall, so any amount of excess fat looks weird on me. I've determined my thighs have been my biggest source of problem, due to having a smaller waist than legs. It makes me not be able to pull up pants that fit. I never had this problem until having my daughter!!
Weigh-in: (7 a.m., before exercise and breakfast) 122.2 lbs.
