This is my first blog post here, and I’m still figuring out how everything works, so it’s going to be a short one. More to come tomorrow.

One thing I did want to mention: I didn’t talk much about my diet last year, because I didn’t stick to it very well. I maintained my weight, but not by keeping my carbs at a reasonably low level. Instead I’d binge on carbs for a couple days until I was half-dead, and then I’d be good for a week until I felt better, then start the cycle over again. Didn’t gain any weight, but it was hard on my health.

So it’s time to stop being stupid and do it right, or I’m going to have full-blown diabetes or worse within a few years. I got off to a good start today, with leftover pork roast for breakfast, more roast plus leftover chicken and mashed sweet potatoes for dinner, and I’m snacking on some nuts and cheese for supper. I hereby swear that I’m going to post about my diet everyday this year, or if I unavoidably miss a day, I’ll post that day’s info the next day. I know writing about it every day will help me stick to it and stop thinking I can afford to blow a day here and there.

More tomorrow!
