Another blog? Really?

Yes, another blog. I've come to the realization that maybe I need more accountability, and I wanted somewhere to post about my weight issues that wasn't my LiveJournal account and wasn't my main blog. I don't know what all will end up here yet. I do know that I like lists, so here are a few:

Weight-loss techniques that have not worked:

• Keeping a food diary. (Tried this multiple times, but it was just so tedious I couldn't keep up with it.)
  
• Exercise. (More on this later.)
  
• The South Beach Diet. (Actually, I lost 15 pounds for a few months, but I was so miserable that binges were inevitable.)

Sad truths:

• I have never gone down a clothing size in my entire life. I have either held steady or increased. (Though mostly held steady, luckily.)
  
• It's difficult to figure out my ideal weight, but after looking at several I can estimate that I am roughly 80 pounds overweight.
  
• I am weak in the face of yummy foods. Doughnuts are a particular favorite.

One thing about this blog is that I don't plan on either censoring myself or monitoring my post frequency. Sometimes I'll post three or four updates within a few hours; other days I'll post nothing. That's just how it goes.

I don't really plan on publicizing this too much, but if you happen to be reading, please let me know.
