Here goes!

Ok so I start my optifast tomorrow, something I have avoided thinking about until today since I had to go shopping for lots of fresh vegies. I remember what it was like last time I had optifast, I think I lasted 4 days and quit. I am hoping that because I know it is for only 14 days that I can stick it out. I am going to do my very best not to get cranky.

I took my measurements today and officially stood on my new scales this morning. I went out and bought a funky blue journal that I am going to document the changes in me, the back pages are the statistics the white pages will be the cerebral journey.
Keeping up a blog and a journal may prove too much for someone who never managed to keep a diary much past february. So I may just copy one from the other until I get into the habit of keeping one.

Tonight watching TV I noticed how many damn food ads there were on tv in the space of an hour.

I found a link on Facebook tonight about an amazing motivational speaker http://www.attitudeisaltitude.com/ Nick Vujicic

Oh boy did I cry some tears just watching it. In one of his you tube vids he mentions a quote that I have everywhere. Never Never Never Give Up. I want this link in my blog to remind me to go back to this site and be inspired all over again.
Ok folks this is going to become one hell of a ride, it's not going to be for the feint hearted and I make no apologies.
