31 Days to a Less Chubby Me


It's been a while since I've posted. A lot of that has to do with the fact that it's been a while since I've done much of anything that would help me lose weight. I'm hoping the month of October will be different.

The Nester mentioned a while back that she and several other bloggers are hosting a "31 Days" blogging event-type thing. That means a whole lot of people are going to be blogging about a whole lot of things for 31 days. I decided to join in.

My blog series is 31 Days to a Less Chubby Me. My approach won't be one of an authoritative voice on losing weight. Seriously, have you seen me lately? I am no authority on this subject. My approach will be to share 31 things I'm going to try, not even necessarily over the physical 31 days of October. Sometimes, trying to make too many changes at once results in making no life-long changes at all.

Perhaps you'll join me on this journey over the next 31 days. Even if you don't jump in and try anything for yourself, I'd love it if you'd pray for me. I know I need to make some changes in my life, and I'm hoping to springboard those changes through this blogging series.

    Chelley - good for you! I would change your blog to Chic Chelley, because that is who you are, no matter what you're weight. You're beautiful. Having said that, I know what it's like to carry extra weight and want to lose it. You can do it!

    I also have a lot of blogs. :-)

    You are the bravest one of the 400+ 31-dayers. Way to go. My husband lost 65lbs on Weight Watchers and has kept most of it off for about 7 years now.

    I'm visiting from The Nesting Place and I so appreciate your honesty and idea for the challenge. I am doing 31 days of nutrition, so I'm right there with ya. I have weight loss and health goals I hope to be helped with this challenge as well. Maybe we can share some ideas. :)
