One Fat Puppy

Two weeks ago I said I would start posting on my weight loss efforts. About this time, I was asked to work a proposal for my company and it spun my life out of control. This activity requires me to continue to support my customer during the day, while working a proposal in the late afternoon/evenings. I found that I would starve myself during the day and then eat huge amounts of fast food on the way home. And visits to the gym stopped. My future work with proposals is going to come with conditions.  I'm not going to let this kind of work negatively impact my health.

So, I'm still a fat puppy! And I will post a picture of me soon that shows
what I look now and then we can see what I look like when I meet my goal. I have no doubt that I will meet my goal. My only concern is being able to accomplish this by February 17th, 2011, which is my wife's birthday. As an added incentive, one of my sisters is a smoker and she promised to quit when I lost 100 pounds. 

Here is where I stand:

Starting Weight: 344.8 lbs (February 17, 2010)
Goal Weight: 244.8 (by February 17, 2011)

Current Weight: 325.6 lbs (September 13, 2010)
Weight Lost: 19.2 lbs (5.5%)

Weight I still need to lose: 80.8 lbs

I will post again soon.
