The idea for this blog has come from several different things:
#1 - I want to lose weight. I've been heavier than I'd like to be for a long time now, and more often than not, I lose the war on trying to do something about it. So setting up a way to stick to a weight loss project seems like a pretty good plan.
#2 - I want to go to Norway. I don't know why, and I'll elaborate on this in later posts, but its something I want to do so its become the strange finish line to this project.
#3 - I read/saw Julie/Julia and I got it. While it may seem silly to cook your way through a cookbook in a year and blog about it, facts are the woman was in a rut and found a way to get herself out of it. And got a book/movie deal to boot. Need I say more?
So the challenge is - I need to lose 75 pounds. I'm not putting a time constraint on it because that would just be unhealthy. Instead, there's a big prize in the end. If I can lose 75 pounds, I get to send myself to Norway. I don't know when it will be, but in my head I'm saying I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
