A new start and direction

I just wanted to drop a quick note to let everyone know starting tomorrow I will start updating the blog daily with the reasons behind my motivation to lose weight. It will have the usual reasons commonly cited as well as others offering insight into my background and future plans.

I am also going to pass along bits of motivation I've found and used, and hope you can find them as beneficial as I have. Hope you're having a great week! Below is a great clip by one of the best motivators out there
