Okay, with much fear and trepidation, I faced my first appointment with humiliation… and stepped on the scale and busted out my wife’s sewing tape measure… drum roll please…

Weight: 219 lbs.
Waist: 41.5 inches

Holy crap!!! Just to put that in perspective, I’m 6’3” tall. But seriously, whoa! Just as recently as the beginning of the year, I was a “reasonable” 195 lbs. This is a record year for weight gain. Wow. Well, nowhere to go but down (I hope!).
