Introduction And Why I Am Here

Well hello there and welcome to my blog, my name is Ginger and I am 22 years old. I am here to blog about my weight loss journey and to find support while I go through the hardest thing ever. No one ever prepared me for how hard it was to diet. I started dieting back in September 2010, but there were many times I feel off the wagon and then the last time for some reason I did not get back up and try again. I have been seeing a dietitian to help me with this and she just recently gave me a handout on the Diabetes Exchange List - 1800 Calories A Day. I am not a diabetic, but I did tell her I have trouble counting calories, so she thought a meal plan would help. I am now on Day three of the diet and its been hard to afford everything that's on the list or to eat whats on there. I will post a separate entry on Days 1-3. So I hope you all will follow me through this and help me to stay accountable to myself and my body.
