So, it's 2012. And I'm still fat.

Okay.  I need to lose weight.  Duh.  I've known this for years.  I joined Weight Watchers once, and it was great.  Lost 25 pounds.  It was a great start.  But it was a gift from my sister or father (can't remember which), and the money for the meetings ran out.  I simply can't afford $10-$14 a week.  I stopped going. I gained it back.  (It's a great program; it works and I recommend it to anyone that can afford it.  But I tire of the sales pitch, and quite frankly, people getting rich off of my weaknesses pisses me off.  The crap food industry has enough of my money already.)

Yet, I need the accountability of reporting to others to keep on the straight and narrow, to not just quit and shove that eclair in my mouth and promise to do better tomorrow.  

So I started a Biggest Loser Challenge among my friends.  I have about 12 commitments.  We started on January 2nd.  It will run 13 weeks.  We each kicked in 20 bucks for prize money.  This blog will serve to let me describe this horrific process for me.  Enjoy my pain.
