Diet, Exercise, etc.

[hsapiens]

I'm going to start using my LJ in a new-to-me way: as an exercise & diet diary. I plan on recording my thoughts, struggles, victories, defeats, books I've read, etc. about food & eating, exercising, and my battle to get fit. And then STAY fit.

This has nothing to do with the usual content of my LJ and I suspect it will contain little interesting content so my current plan is to take it all private. However, others on my f-list may be cutting a similar path and find that having a place to talk about it might be useful.

If you suspect you might want to read, think about, or discuss these sorts of issues, please comment here. If there's interest, rather than making my entries private I'll f-lock them and make a special filter for those who want to wade through it all.

This is going to be mostly navel-gazing, so consider yourself fairly warned.

I'm interested, as it might give me inspiration to take care of my own self and ideas on how to do so that I hadn't previously thought of. And, y'know, if I can be supportive, I'd like to be that, too. :)

I've added you to the filter. :)

I hope it helps you. I have tried and failed so many times. This time, I'm trying to be more open-minded. That is, I'm willing to look at some things that I scoffed at before but I want a diary instead of personal perception to help me evaluate whether or not something worked. Also, since I have a small group of intelligent women interested, I'm now thinking it'll also be a good group for vetting reality and perception.

Support is always welcomed -- and I hope that I can return the favor!
