I know it's only one pound, but it's still a loss!
By the way, Barney--I know you're reading this. If I'm going to put in the effort to lose weight, I'm going to challenge you to learn how to add in comments. I'm going to come down to BL to show you.
Well, now that my little brother's gone and made it public, I guess I have no choice but to step up and do this! I have no idea how I'm going to make it happen, but it's time to get serious about getting healthy. As a wise woman mentioned on Sunday, working out is OK until you get all hot and uncomfortable! I realize this presents a significant hurdle to losing weight, so I guess I'll have to figure that one out.
I've said that I want to "get serious" before, but I got a huge reality check yesterday. I got on the scale (which I've avoided doing for the last six weeks or so), and realized I've actually put on 10 pounds this summer. Crap! So, here's my week one stats. I'll try to figure out how to add a photo later.

Incidentally, although I clearly don't have all the answers in the weight-loss world, I find it hard to let go of my nickname, so it stays! I would take suggestions for new ones, but with all of the smart-asses in our family, it would take me weeks to sort through them all.

Wow! Looks like I'm more than back on track this week. I was worried that my vacation would completely ruin any momentum I had. But enough about me.
Now, my big sister, our very own Ms Know-It-All, has decided she's going to lose this last 40 pounds with me. Let's everyone wish Jen luck - I can only hope she gets just as much support from y'all as I have over the past year. (but no more... that just wouldn't be fair!)

When I left for vacation, I promised myself I wouldn't get sunburned. Fat lot of good that did.
Hey, one pound down isn't too bad, considering I wasn't following my diet this past week. I've now officially hit the three-quarter mark. Only forty more pounds to go!
We took my measurements at the gym this morning, before my training session. Since I joined in February, I've lost 10 inches on my chest (buh-bye man-boobs! I won't miss you when you're all gone!), 13 inches on my waist, and 12 along my hips. My thighs are almost 2 inches smaller than they were a month ago, and over 7" from my first measurements.
That is all.

No major developments this week. We're taking my measurements at the gym today, so I may post that if I have a chance later.

Wow. I only have another fifty pounds to go. In contrast, on Week 13 I'd just lost 50 pounds. I figure about three more months, and I'll be at 200 lbs.
Ran into some folks this weekend, who haven't seen me in a while. It's kind of fun to see someone's jaw drop when they figure out who this skinny guy they're talking to is.
