Starting the Journey to a healthier me!

So I just got accepted as a contestant in a local radio stations (www.KRTY.com)  "Biggest Loser" contest.  No I won't be going off to the ranch like in the TV show.  I will be participating in a local medical weight loss program for 30 days.  The program is sponsored by Greenlite Medical here in the Bay Area.  As part of the contest the Radio station is going to have us write weekly updates about our experience. I decided I want to take it one step further and try and keep this as a daily journal/blog.  I can't thank my family, friends and strangers enough who voted for me to be able to have this opportunity.  I am competing against 5 other people to see who loses the most in 30 days.  The winner will get 6 more months on the program, 2nd place gets 3 more months and 3rd place gets 1 more month.  I am really looking forward to this opportunity as a jumping off point to losing some weight and becoming more active. Tomorrow I will be going to meet with the Dr. and find out all the details of the program and what will lie ahead for me in the next 30 days.

Thank you again to everyone who has promised their support and encouragement.
