A Plan to Lose Myself

Clarification: A plan to lose my physical self. Just some of it. Most people would just call it a diet.

Dieting, starving, fasting, "losing a few,"etc. Whatever you call it, I'm on my way to lowering the number I see when I step on a scale. Now, I understand that "you shouldn't focus on the number" and whatnot, but I'm still determined to make that number go down. And why shouldn't it? I'm going to eat a balanced healthy diet and exercise like I'm in a 1980s Jane Fonda video.

So, here's the catch: I only want to lose my physical self. I feel like when many people diet, they lose their personality and become calorie-deprived monsters. This is something I'd like to avoid.

So, to all of you people out there in the virtual blogging world, consider this the start of my dieting blogging. I'll update occasionally, most likely when I have great triumphs and great failures. Here's to swimsuit season!
