Why?
Friday, March 25, 2005
I'm starting a blog.
Yes, I know that the vast majority of the world won't care, and in the end this will probably be read by my wife and mother for a few weeks before they lose interest and leave me here talking to myself.
So what's the point? Why am I doing this?
Because I love food. Because I used to hate my body. Because I'm finally getting the hang of managing my weight while at the same time cooking the best food I've ever made. And I hope that in this space that I can share a few recipes, a few tidbits on managing to eat well without turning into Jabba the Hut, and a few anecdotes on my experience losing weight and struggling with overeating.
Bon Appetit.

You say... "I know that the vast majority of the world won't care, and in the end this will probably be read by my wife and mother for a few weeks before they lose interest and leave me here talking to myself."
I say...

1. The world will care. I see it in your future! :)
2. Your Mama will never loose interest on anything that comes from you! (I am sure your wife feels the same way!)

William:
I very much enjoyed reading your recipes and insights into your struggle with weight. As you probably remember, I too am a food addict. I have lost 150 pounds since you last saw me, so I know how difficult it can be, how wonderful it can be, and how terrifying it can be to relapse. Remember, it's not about being perfect--it's about being peristent. Bravo William!!

Hey Will!
Nice blog. I just recently decided to give up sweets for a year. Exceptions are fruit-based things (ex. frozen o.j. = two thumbs up) and a few beverages (i heart hot chocolate). See, I decided that my biggest downfall to healthy eating was snacking. I snack a lot, and when it's mostly cookies and junk food and such. Hopefully I will have dropped a few by the time we visit at the 4th. Feeling California, Looking Minnesota, Lisa
