80 pounds gone, Phase 1 done

You might have noticed that I have reached my first goal of 80 pounds weight lose, but did I do it in 8 months? I actually hit 303 early in April, but I was just too darned busy to post about it. All told, I lost 80 pounds in 7.5 months, but then […]

1.7433 miles

That’s the distance from my office to my front door (walking). So, if I do that at least twice a week that means I’ll be walking 3.4 miles a week. Not too shabby (especially if I walk briskly).

I have to shed some pounds, and I thought I would document the process with a blog.  Why?  Because I heart blogging.
