Time to Start The Countdown

Okay, so my feeble attempt at losing weight this past month was a disaster. I didn't do anything to aide in my mission of losing weight, except say that I wanted to lose weight. That's why I quit posting about it, but I'm trying again. I'm not giving up! I really want to do this. The last straw just occurred today when I tried on a pair of pants that I wore this time last year, and they were too small. I have to take control of this problem before it's more than just a visible inconvenience to me. As an African American, I really have to be aware of my diet, if not, it can cause serious health problems for me in the future. Because there is a strong history of high blood pressure and diabetes in my family, I have take care of myself a lot better than I have been. I have a month before I go home for homecoming, and I want to have lost at least 10 pounds by then. The goal is still to have a six pack and toned arms by this summer. I'm going to do it this time.
