Blog?

Hi,

I will be going for VSG Sept. 2nd, In addition to sharing posts on the forum that I feel will be helpful to others I would like to start my own blog so I can vent through this journey. Can you recommend a good site for blogging? What do you guys use?

I feel awful, but now that the date is approaching, it's all I can think about. I have already given my family and boyfriend an earful and I'm sure they are sick of hearing about it, but it is just so hard not to keep on bringing it up, my thoughts are constantly wandering to it.

Thank you =] I woud also love a buddy to be able to touch base on this subject, kind of like the buddy/mentor idea.

Have no idea which blog site is best or even where to direct you to start, but I wanted to let u know that documenting your journey will be awesome. I so wish I had done that, with pictures and all. The transformation was just so fast...that even during some of my struggles, it was so worth it.

Wish u all the best!

I've also tried to document my journey when I've started other diets, but that was mainly to keep myself on track, I was always hesitant about taking before pictures in my past because I didn't want to look at myself at that weight..and was afraid I wouldn't lose the weight.

I went to a work event, got my photo taken! I'm planning on using that as my before picture because it's a full body pic.

I'm ready for change and want to document everything this time from pics to weight and inches lost.

You can blog on this site to keep everything together. Or many people start blogs on Blogger - it's connected with your other Google accounts (assuming you're a Google user).

Best of luck!
