Before I begin to explain the reasoning behind the blog and it's title I want to school everyone on a very interesting fact I learned about the saying, "She is getting her just deserts." I, like you, thought it was "just desserts" but apparently it is not. According to snopes and many other sites it is indeed desert - and does not bear the extra s one would put when referring to the tastey after dinner reward. (one which I looove so much) Anyway I decided it to be apropos to name my site "just deserts" as I believe I am indeed going to get what I deserve in life by changing my outlook and the methodology in how I approach it. Additionally, I too thought it was "just desserts" and I LOVE cake and pie - er, desserts. This is actually what has placed me in my current situation of wanting to make lifestyle changes which are permanent so I can finally lose ALL the weight I want for good. But I digress, and have now explained the reason for the blog whilest rambling about the title.
So sit back and enjoy the ride while I sweat, wimper, cry, and shed mental and physical weight in an attempt to achieve " My just deserts"
* sidenote- I know there are people in my life, such as my dad, who will say that I am giving out "too much data" by having a page like this. I believe that sharing my struggles and triumphs with the world without too much TMI is an inspiration and motivator and hope it is viewed as such by others.*

I think you can share this and still not share too much. If your journey motivates just one other person to head down the right path then it will be worth the sharing.
