1.12.2012 - Ramping up the blog again

????

I'm at the point right now where I'm a little bit afraid of getting on the scale. The good news is that I'm starting a new job next week, so that should bring some stability to my life, which is good news for getting back on the diet.

Starting tomorrow, I'll record my weight every day again along with my workouts and what I eat. I've been eating a lot lately, almost compulsively, which obviously isn't good. Right now, losing weight is the number one thing I can do to increase my overall level of fitness, so getting the diet back under control is key.
