Here's the Skinny.

Aaah yes, Miami.

Home to beautiful blue beaches...

J Lo...at least that's where she lives in my dreams....

Super Small Bikinis...

And for one week in May 2011, Me.

(For the record, that's me on the right.) -------^

Last week I had a doctor's appointment, and I stepped on a scale for the first time in I'm not telling you. What I discovered was a number so ghastly, I had to check to be sure the doctor wasn't standing on the scale with me:

197.6

Let me break that down for you, because I don't think you understand the severity of the situation:

One hundred, ninety seven point six pounds. If I had to pee after eating a hamburger, I would weigh 200 pounds, perhaps more!

200 pounds?!!?!

That's two hearty Sheep!

...800 Oranges!!

1.7 Rihannas!!!!



...And at least 50 pounds more than I'd like to weigh : (

The rest of my family weighs 140 pounds on average, so I know that I can be smaller. I can't stand that I always feel so big when compared to the girls I date, and I feel like they're always watching the things that I eat and wondering why I still am eating, which I admit sounds crazy...but I digress- I have had enough!


Here's my goal:


I'd like to be fit and toned for my trip to Miami, and more importantly, for the rest of my life. I plan to do this by eating better and documenting what I eat right here for the whole world to see, working out (I just started TurboFire yesterday and wooo! I can't wait to talk about that!), and getting my friends and those who read my blog to join me, to help keep me motivated.


So join me as I work, sweat, cry, and succeed- because I WILL succeed- in being more physically fit, sexier, slimmer, and even more fabulous than I already am!


...And if you live in the DMV and you'd like to join in, email me at brwilliams387@yahoo.com - I'd love to join you for a workout : )

See you lighter!
