Going going ….
Eggnog, Christmas cookies, Thanksgiving meals (but mostly eggnog) – a few years ago these conspired together to pack about 20 extra pounds on my body, taking me to about 200 pounds. Since my body leveled out as an adult, I was consistently 180. The charts say that’s high, but it seems to be my natural weight.
I got sick of being fat and started trying to casually lose some of this extra mass. Eat less at lunch, add just a little extra exercise. Going to the beach last month actually helped since we skipped about a meal each day. So does walking Ellie each evening.
Anyway, I’ve been monitoring the loss and today I stepped on the scale to find myself at 188 pounds! That’s the first I’ve been south of 190 in years.
So that makes me happy.

Congrats! No small deed!
Sweet! I’ve been trying to lose weight but it’s SO hard trying to talk myself into going to the gym. I hate getting ready for it. But I decided that few times a week I’d exercise here and there. Gotta get rid of my FAT PACK!
congrats!
Well, you were handsome the other way, but this just makes you even cuter! and no small thing to be a Volpone and not eat!
