My Special Purpose

I've had two recent experiences that are my inspiration for this blog. I saw the movie, Julia & Julie, and I saw a video by a guy who walked across China and took photos of himself every day while he did it. (Check it out: Christoph Rehage, The Longest Way 1.0) Anyway while I was watching Christoph for the second time I thought it would be neat to see myself "melt" over the course of the next year. I have the time right now since I'm not working. I have the technology. I have most of the skills and like learning new ones. I am in dire need of motivation to lose weight.

So, I don't know if I found my purpose or if my special purpose found me. But there is something very intriguing about the idea. And I desperately want to lose weight/fat/demons. My best friend and I can do it together.
