This is just a quick note to say I have lost 35 pounds so far since the beginning of the year. I am now 225 pounds! I’m multitasking right now so no sage wisdom or wit but rather just the pure joy at achieving another few pounds! I only have 11 more pounds to go till I am just overweight (compared to obese!)!

I had only eaten 500 calories before I got home from work and did a long workout. My wife and step-daughter came home from the Olive Garden with leftovers just in the nick of time. Needless to say I am easily around 1500 calories for the day. As always… if you create a goal and work steadily towards it.. you will achieve it! Hang in there… it is working for me!
