In the Beginning. . .
It's time. I saw a picture this weekend and realized it's time. Perhaps even PAST time. What time is it, you ask? Well, it's time for one Glamorous Redneck to lose some weight.

And what better way for a Glamorous Redneck to lose weight than to use a diet designed by Glamour magazine?

And I need to have a place where I'm going to hold myself accountable. That's where YOU come in! This is going to be a place of brutal honesty. Full disclosure. There'll be disgustingly embarrassing pictures. All my successes, all my failures, every time I cheat (which will happen, because I have the will power of a two year old), and every time the weight actually comes off.

The goal is to lose 85 pounds (holy crap that's a lot! I'm sick that I've let it get this far.) by the time my 10 year high school reunion rolls around (most likely late June 2008). That's 8 1/2 pounds per month. It's ambitious, but I think I can do it.

So, check back, check often. I'll even post recipes and the like. Feel like you need to lose some weight? Then jump on! It's always good to have a support group. You don't have to make your own weight loss blog. Just come by here and let me know that you're doing it too. We'll have our own little support group!

Coming September 4th, 2007!

    I'm here for ya!! Have you checked out Tales from the Scales? They're almost at the end of an 18-week weight loss challenge, but weigh-in's are every Tuesday and throughout the week, there's hints, tips, recipes, etc.

    Hey girl! I don't know if you remember me or not but we used to be critique partners long ago...Stephanie from Alabama? I've kept up with your blog since you told me about it and I just wanted to say, (mainly because it's so coincidental) that I'm starting a weight loss program tomorrow. It's a 90 day challenge (called Power 90) and it's wonderful! I haven't stuck with it before, but I've got to get the last of this baby weight off (I've had TWO kids now). My goal is 25 or 30 pounds which will put me down to 115. I'm here for ya! BTW, email me sometimes, too! I'd love to see how you're doing with the writing!
