I'm hungry!

I've started blogs before without a specific purpose. I believe mostly just to hear myself talk and see if anyone really cares, but this time there's a reason. A little over a year ago I started having health issues which has come to the doctor's  conclusion that it's time to loose weight. (Thanks Doc.) I've always been pretty comfortable with where I'm at in life, but I know that I need to do better for me. Therefore, I've taken a semester off of grad school and I am focusing on me.

I've titled this blog "Hungry Girl Diaries" because I'll be discussing what I've done to work out for the day and what I'm cooking (while taking LOTS of suggestions), but also because "being hungry" is so much more than food. I'm hungry for life! I have a huge, crazy family and even nuttier friends, an obsession for celebrity culture, and an adorable hyper pup that will be getting lots of attention.

This blog is a motivation for me to loose the weight while having fun. I want it to look at it and have a support team when I feel like I can't do thirty more minutes on the elliptical. I also want to show that life is possible when dieting, mostly because I never thought it was possible. So friends, it's time to get hungry.
