Drop 30 Pounds

Well, I think I established enough of a case in my last post to prove to myself it’s time to get serious and do something about dropping these pounds.  I jokingly put on my Facebook profile last year that one of my hobbies was to see how long I could not exercise and stay under 200 lbs.  Unfortunately that day just came and left.  After years of staying on the right side of that line, I really busted through it in the past few months.

So, what am I going to do about it?  Blog.  Well, and exercise if I must… okay, and adjust my diet a bit… at some point.  The blog is just a way for me to have some accountability (and a good dose of public humiliation) to force me to keep at it.

I’ll post a weekly weigh-in and waist measurement to track progress.  As scary as it is to post those initial numbers it’s the only way to really get this going.  I’ll talk about and review some training programs, diets, and other fun stuff.  Any comments, ideas, and *encouragement* would be appreciated.
