And here we go...

It really sucks being cursed with a crap metabolism. I’ve struggle my whole life with weight and my brother, born with a horse shoe up his ass can’t gain weight. Thank you gods for dealing me the crap hand! It’s easy to use my terrible metabolism as an excuse for my weight problems, but in reality it’s my fault because I loathe the gym and I love poutines and wine. Now that I’m 30 (eeek) this whole weight loss thing is apparently a lot harder. I have to work harder, eat less, eat healthy, drink less. Dear god, save me now…. My goal is obviously to live a healthy life and get my ass into shape. Ideally, I would like to lose 15 pounds by June…. That’s 1.5 pounds a week… I can do that, right? Overall, I’d like to drop 30 pounds…. DUN DUN DUN!
Alright, here’s the plan.  Eat healthy and exercise, which is the obvious answer to "how will you do it?" but still….ugh kill me now. I’m going to try and have 1200 calories a day and exercise at the gym 3-4 times per week. This will get harder in the summer since I spend weekends at the cottage and let’s be real. I am not going to go for a jog at the cottage, I’m there to lie in the sun and drink wine.
So, I will do my best to keep you updated on my progress and setbacks... I know that I’m going to indulge every once in a while- I’m not going to start this journey off based on a lie. Plus I refuse to live without wine.  
Wish me luck!
