I had fallen off the wagon, as it were, back when I was unemployed and couldn't afford the weekly/monthly fees. As a result - combined with other matters - my weight got back up to where it was the LAST time my doctor told me I was morbidly obese (310-ish). So...
Started three weeks ago at 309 lbs. Last week's weigh-in I was down 3 lbs. I need to reach 15 lbs loss in about ten weeks, and then get it down to 30 lbs (the "ten percent" goal) within twenty weeks. So right now I'm aiming for 294 lbs and then 279 lbs after that.
Just gotta cut back on the pizza. And the chocolate. And the sodas (seriously, that's a major part right there). And the chocolate. And the mac and cheese...
And while there's a big emphasis on eating more greens (and just generally eating less of the stuff that just makes you fat), there's a smarter emphasis on portion control than on cutting back on the "bad" stuff altogether (that creates denial, then total rejection of the dieting effort) combined with more activity (burn baby burn, Calories Inferno!). Walk more, eat less...
So don't be surprised if you see me biking a lot more often. Do be terrified, though: WHERE'S THE BRAKES ON THESE THINGS! AIIIEEEEEE...
