I know the cliché is diet & exercise, but we have to start somewhere, don’t we? Effective today (no foolin’), I am starting a medically supervised weightloss program. This isn’t something I would normally broadcast, but I figured the four or five of you reading this could help to hold me accountable … and celebrate successes with me!  🙂

Also beginning today, I’m participating in Script Frenzy, which is a one-month screenplay/stage play writing contest. I’ve never written a play before, so it will be a fun challenge.

I was thinking last night about how to plan ahead so that I might be successful in both of these endeavors, then it dawned on me. One of my biggest obstacles with dieting is the lunch hour. It’s sooooo easy to just go out for lunch instead of bringing my lunch, especially when friends from work want to go.

So, for the month of April, I’m going to make a concerted effort to bring my lunch and write my play during the break. It sounds like a win-win solution to me! Aaannnnnd … ACTION!
