Day One

OK so today is Day One on Alli.  I've desided to take it easy with the pills and start out only taking one a day for the first week (with dinner) then the following week I will increase it to two pills a day (breakfast and dinner) and so on.  I'm hoping this works.  My exercise for the week will be spending lots of time in the pool and i'm also going to be doing this workout thing I got for the Wii (not the Wii fit) so I'm hoping all goes well.

My First

Ok so this is my first blog.....Wow where do I start.  This is going to be my place to clear my head and focus on the dreams and goals of my life.  I think I"m going to start with the goal I am strongly focusing on right now, and that would be my weight loss goal. After a year of dieting and trying to do things on my own I finally went to my doctor. She mentioned a prescription pill but was hesitant to give it to me becuase of my thyroid problems.  While there she also suggested I try Alli. So I finally forked up the money and bought the 90 ct starter kit from rite aid (it helped that i had a $10 coupon and Rite Aid has a $20 mail in rebate. I am going to start taking the pill on Monday (June 29th 2009). I am hoping this will work. In this blog I am also going to post my current weight (so please dont mock or laugh), my short term goal with a date and my progress.
