So last Monday I was getting in the shower and decided to weigh myself, just to go ahead and get the day started with a bang. I was at a career high 220.5 pounds. Wowsa.

So i decided to take the road less traveled and try to lose the equivalent of a small child. My goal: 180 by September 15th. (Why then? Because Holly and I are going to San Fransisco and I’ll be damned if she’s going to be the only one looking heroin chic in the inevitable pictures.)

That’s 40 pounds in 40 days. Crazy? Perhaps. Stupid? Probably. Possible? Oh yeah.

I’ll be posting my updates here every Monday in the hopes that my public humiliation will be inspiring enough to keep me going.

Here’s the game plan: diet, exercise, willpower. Easy, right?
:)

If I can stay around 1000 calories per day, and do at least a couple of miles on the treadmill or play some tennis every day, I should be pretty close, if not able to reach the goal.

So let’s see. The first weeks weigh in stats:

Monday September 30th - 220.5 lbs
Monday August 6th - 213.5 lbs
Monday August 27th - 209lbs (been busy, that’s my excuse!)

Ok, so far so good. Let’s see if we can keep it up. Any wagers?
