fat2phat revisited

About two years ago, I decided I needed to lose some weight. I weighed 235 pounds at the time. I set a goal for myself to lose 40 pounds in a year (a process I called "fat2phat"). It ended up taking me about 10 months to reach my goal. Since then, I've kept the weight off but recently it's been creeping back on. The last time I weighed myself (about 1-2 weeks ago), I weighed about 205 pounds. So, time for a new goal. By Christmas (7 months from now), I want to lose 15 pounds and get down to 190 pounds. That's realistic - it's about 2 pounds per month. When I lost weight the last time, I lost about 2 pounds per week.



To build some accountability into this process, I'm going to post an update on this blog once a week (every Sunday morning). The first one will be in two days. That will be the official weigh-in and starting point for improvement.
