What is "Just Right"?

Dear friends and family,

I've been thinking for a while about starting a "diet website" where any of us who are trying to change our eating habits (whether for health, weight, or appearance reasons) can talk to and support each other in our efforts to make change. Since I'm already familiar with blogger and do not have time to mess around with learning a new program, I decided to do a diet blog instead.

I'm naming my blog "Just Right" after the Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Remember how Goldilocks tried Papa Bear's cereal and it was too hot, tried Baby Bear's cereal and it was too cold, and tried Mama Bear's cereal and it was just right? Well I've tried extreme diets before and they were always too hot or too cold, so this time I'm going to try to get things just right, and let my body do the rest.

My diet plan is to set two-week goals. I'm planning to give myself two weeks to master each new phase of converting my diet to a healthier lifestyle, so every two weeks I will hopefully have mastered one weakness and will be ready to master another.

My first two-week goal is to eat five fruits and vegetables a day. I won't bore you with hourly updates on how I'm doing, but I may cry to you when I am struggling to keep up with it!

If you are interested in joining me and my blog, whatever your diet plan or health goal is, send me an e-mail and I will add you as an administrator to this blog so that you can add your own posts.
