Default OPTing for reality

The reality in this situation is that I'm fat and need to do something about it. If you can't tell by the title the something I've chosen is Leigh Peele's OPT fat loss program, which has been sitting on my computer just waiting for me to get back from vacation and read it.
The next few days are going to be spent clearing the chocolate out of my house and coming up with some meal plans for the first four weeks. Oh and finding a foam roller, one of the few fitness gagets I haven't bought over the years

I'm 29yrs old and am a shift worker so I struggle with staying committed to following through with any program. Every other week I only have 10 hrs of the day to sleep, eat, cook, exercise, etc. Besides all the fun extras in life like golf league, rugby games, and teaching swimming.
My goal is just to finish the entire 12 weeks and enter this summer in better shape and a few pounds lighter well maybe 20 would be nice.

Every four weeks or so I'm going to take pics and measurements once I get started. Tracking food will probably be the hardest thing for me to do, I'm thinking of buying the daily plate program as I only have dial-up at home. I've figured out my cals and macros so now I just need to read through once more and make sure I'm not missing anything.
