well, it's christmas eve and I weigh 303. I could sit here and wine about how I can't get past the 300's and into the 290's, but I won't. I know what my problems are that are keeping me from my goals but I continue to choose to do nothing about them so I can't ***** about it.

so, 10 months, 51lbs. I do get jealous when I read of other folks same success in much less time, but I remind myself of the choices I've made that are hindering my from achieving the same success. My doc is happy with my loss, so that's a plus, and overall I look and feel better so that's good too.

wow, it's been awhile since I posted here.

300.4

that is the lowest "official" weigh in I've had. I weigh regularly, and had gotten down to 299 back in October but it wasn't on a weigh in day.

I've just been stuck bouncing around the 300's for so long. I told myself: you're going to get in the 290's this week.

almost there.

nothing else too spectacular to report. normal life stuff goes on with the wife and kids, they're all doing great. I have a job offer I'm considering right now, but it would mean moving...

SOSDD, I know what I need to do to get over this hump but have been unwilling to do it.

If I really want to get out of the @#$%@#$^#$$#$!@#$@!#^&%^&%^ 300's, I need to nut up and do eet.

And this after I hit 299 last friday. But as always, after hitting a new low I go out and screw it up. Had beer and breaded wings over the weekend. I didn't care at the time, but as always, now I do that I'm facing the music.

I'll get it back tho.

Note that I've changed my record day to be wednesday instead of tuesday. I finally got my wife serious about losing weight and she suggested a challenge. She wants to weigh on wednesday to try to alleviate the weekend bounce we're both guilty of, so that's...

man, there's just not words right now. I'm so happy and so scared at the same time. I finally got out of the 300's today. I am so ecstatic I it's hard to describe. But I'm also terrified that I'll at some point let myself get back there.

But I won't. Never again will I slip back into that. I've got less to lose now, than I've lost. I've lost 15.5% of my starting weight. I've lost 55 friggin pounds!!!!!! I could just shout that from a rooftop.

It's amazing how much more confident I am in myself knowing that I CAN do this. If I can do this, imagine what else...
