The journey begins! http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/shrinkingpirate/comments/297341/the-journey-begins <p>So here I am, trying yet another tool to help me lose the weight I've been dragging around for years.&nbsp; I've been too big for too long, and I'm tired of it! I'm a rennie,a nd have a fabulous group of fiends, I mean friends.&nbsp; They love me just as I am, but I'm afraid I don't anymore. I'm tired of being &quot;the funny one&quot;.&nbsp; My good personality only gets me so far, I want my looks back, and I'm going to get there if I have to drag myself kicking and screaming!</p> <p>The bodices that I wear at faire do a great job of highlighting some of my more positive assets, but I can look better.&nbsp; And I'd like to be known for more than just my &quot;girls&quot;.</p> <p>I'm doing weight watchers with some cardio and weight training, and I'm considering adding Alli to the mix. Hey, there's a coupon, what can I say? It can't hurt to try...&nbsp; I'll be sure to track my progress, tribulations and triumphs here.</p> <p>So feel free to leave your comments and help keep me in line.&nbsp; If I discover the magic potion that transforms me overnight, I'll be sure to share it!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <a href="http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/shrinkingpirate/comments/297341/the-journey-begins">Comments(9)</a> 297341 Sunday, December 2, 2007 23:00:14
