Venting to myself. Hope it helps!

Well, a post on one of my teams got me thinking . I log on faithfully every day. I spend a lot of time looking around (too much probably). I try new recipes. I track. I look for success in people's blogs. I look for people to identify with. The older woman who has been overweight most of her life and has tried everything under the sun to lose the weight. I love to read the bogs of the younger ones who are smart and getting a handle on things before it gets out of control. Basically, I love to see how people are working this program.

I have noticed that except for blogs there is not much interaction on the teams that I am on. As I commented on one of them, maybe they are all out living their "new and improved" lives. Well, until I get one of those I am here.

I have been trying to blog a couple of times a week, but I realize that, because there are so many blogs out there, I am not connecting to people. I go to my team forums everyday to see if someone has posted something new that I can use or relate to. Not much new...

I have always been shy at interacting with new people. I am not a joiner. I do not belong to clubs, or groups, or circles. I work. I come home. I have friends at work, but do not socialize with them. I have bad self esteem. Wow! Can I have some cheese with my whine?

Ok, now that that's over...I am here to get that new and improved life that I know is out there. I am willing to do whatever I must. I will blog, comment, befriend, share, become healthy- physically and mentally- I will even exercise because I know there is a life out there waiting for me and I deserve it, too!

Now I will get off my soapbox (feeling a bit lighter) and turn on Leslie Sansone. Gotta be able to walk before I can run!
