40 by 30
I’m turning 30 in six months. I’m not really freaked out by this – I’ve accomplished quite a bit in my first 30 years, have a wonderful husband, own a beautiful home (it’s mortgaged, but again, I’m only 30), and am living in a great city. But I do want to start the next decade off on the right foot, and for me, that means losing those extra few pounds that have been hanging around for the last 5-7 years. And by a few, I unfortunately mean 40. That’s startling to me, because at first it was only ten pounds, then twenty, and now somehow it’s forty. Startling because I have dieted before, and in fact was at my ideal weight maybe 4 years ago. But it crept back on.
So 40by30 is my chronicle of trying to lose those 40 pounds before my 30th birthday. I’m hoping this blog will help me keep track and stay focused.
30, here I come!
