The first post

Hello everyone (or no one at this point in time),


Just thought I'd write a quick synopsis, or more extended version, of the reasons I created this blog. My whole life I've been just a little overweight. You know the type: fits in with everyone, looks happy, but not quite dateable. The extra few pounds around my midsection sure have kept me a safe distance from not only dating opportunities, but from really knowing myself as a person. It's easy to go through life making excuses for yourself while all the time caring too much about what others think. Well, it's time to get out there and get over those insecurities, find out who I am and learn a few things on the way.

I've never been a good cook. Well, I take that back. I can't cook. Never isn't the best word (considering I've just reached my early twenties). So, while learning to eat healthy and gain further life confidence, I plan to learn how to cook as well.

I'm tired, and just thought I'd give this whole thing a quick start. So, off to bed for me bloggers! I'll continue the story tomorrow...
