I worked out with Cecil, evil personal trainer last night. This was “weigh-in” and take measurements night. I’m having to come face to face with my denial issues. Fact: during my last job, where I was for five years, I gained 35 lbs. I don’t know if it was stress, the desk job, or just a really unhealthy atmosphere but no matter: it all has to go.

So my plan is this: 35lbs. in 140 days. That’s 20 weeks at 1.75 lbs a week. For someone who hasn’t been in shape since, oh, eighth grade and who has never, ever dieted this could be interesting.
