Nearing 61 and roughly 100 pounds overweight, feeling like an old man, tired all the time and lacking endurance. What a change from the early years! Weighed in both yesterday and today at an astonishing 264 lbs.! One hundred pounds is an awful lot of excess and I guess I should think realistically in terms of goals--a two-year project, getting down to 200 by August 1, 2011 and 164 by August 1, 2012 (just in time for the election!). Two points from my previous blog, which I can't seem to gain access to anymore (having forgotten user name and password--LOL): "never eat anything that's not delicious" and "eat like a human being"--the first from Calvin Trillin, the second a commonly-used expression. Let the real me reveal himself underneath the layers of blubber that have accumulated over the years. Stop wearing the fat as the equivalent of a coat of armor hiding the insecurities of my early years as a skinny kid. I am what I am. And now it's a question of health.
So, a few random thoughts to start off this blog. Later.
