Time to fess up

As you can probably tell from my previous posts, I like to eat. The love of eating coupled with laziness and a slow metabolism caused me to reach an all time high weight. A few months ago, when I started this blog one of my goals was to lose 30 pounds. In fact I lost 11 pounds in the first month. Sadly, I've gained 9 back and I am almost back at square one.

Not to be discouraged, for the next 30 days I've decided to use this medium to help me be accountable to my weight loss journey. Starting tomorrow I will post daily my food intake diary as well as exercise diary. I need to do better and will do better. I refuse to destroy myself with food.

You told Harpo to beat me?!?!

"The Color Purple" is one of my all time favorite movies. On last night, my sister and I had the wonderful opportunity to see the musical production here in Atlanta.

Fantasia reprised her role as 'Miss Celie' and did not disappoint. I loved her on American Idol. However, I did not care too much for her solo efforts as they would result in screaming. During the production, I really enjoyed her pure singing ability. She had to throw in a few screams here and there but it worked for the musical number she was performing.

Of course, "The Color Purple" would not be the "The Color Purple" without 'Sophia'. I loved when the die hard fans of the movie began to recite lines in unison with 'Sophia'. The entire cast did an excellent job and I hope to see it again.

I highly recommend you check out if it comes to your area.
