I haven’t blogged much since returning home from Las Vegas this past September. I guess I really haven’t felt the need for it, or at a minimum haven’t had much to say – which is a rarity for me altogether.
I suppose I should return to the task of blogging. I know I want to, yet finding my niche – as is the case with all other areas of life – I’m struggling to figure out what I want to say, what I should and shouldn’t say and how best to communicate the passion for so many subjects that often lives inside of me.
For now, I’m swimming in a sea of feelings, beliefs and convictions that aren’t always easy to sort out. I’ve thought about commenting on the insanity that is our political system, and in particular, as we gear up for the next Presidential election. Then I’ve thought about bringing my readers along on my weight-loss journey, but that isn’t going so well right now and I don’t think it would be a pleasant ride for most.
Well, at any rate, I wanted to put something out there. I can’t promise when I will blog next, but I do hope it’s soon. Today, I need to refocus my efforts on me. While that might sound selfish, it is more preservation than conceit. I need to lose weight and that isn’t going to be possible until I can grab firmly on the reins of this diet, which have up til now be quite elusive (or is it evasive?).
Pride48 2012 in Las Vegas is just 190 days from today. I need to lose 150 pounds to be where I would like to be. The odds of losing nearly 1 pound per day is statistically unrealistic, so this means accepting a goal that is much smaller and consequently much less than where I need to be; meaning I won’t reach my desired goal weight by September unless I become the recipient of some miracle, have gastric bypass surgery (which I don’t want to do), or am able to kick my butt into high-gear and fast-track this weight loss once-and-for-all.
I don’t know why I procrastinate so much, but I think I need to solve that dilemma too if I am to be successful at really bringing about measurable change in my life.
That journey should start today.
Until next time….
