A healthier me

So I'm trying to get healthier. I'm down about 15 pounds or so, but everytime I get to an amount of weight like this, I just screw it up. It's like I can't get back the momentum of the first few weeks of the healthier lifestyle. And at work, well, I think someone would rake in a fortune if they had a delivery soup and salad service! In Baraboo, Wis., however, we have McDonalds, Taco Bell, Culvers and Dairy Queen all within walking distance of each other (okay, to Dairy Queen, it would be a long walk, but hey, we need the exercise these days). Aren't we in an obesity crisis in this country? And people are wondering why. As a resident fatty, I can safely say that there are no excuses. I chose to put every morsel of food in my mouth. But to not have any healthy alternatives? That's a problem. Any entrepreneurial spirits reading this from Baraboo...soup and salad delivered. You'll make a bundle!

On a lighter note (ha ha, no pun, really!), I'm working late on my new computer and loving it! I should be doing dishes, laundry, or picking up the living room. I'm also yawning. But hey, I'm having fun and I'm writing. Something that hasn't been done in a long time.
