This morning, I hit another magical 10 pound increment. Since November 1, I’ve managed to drop 30 pounds. That’s 31 weeks and 30 pounds for those of you counting. And even though I complain a lot, I really couldn’t be much happier. I’m fitter, lighter, and healthier than I was 8 months ago–a statement that I haven’t been able to say in a very long time. I’m hoping to keep that streak going for a very long time to come.
Next week, I’m going to get my body fat and other stats measured at the gym to see how much progress I’ve really made on the reshaping of my body. I feel firmer, and less flabby, but I’ve definitely still got some work to do on the body sculpting front. We’re going to a swim party on Sunday, and I’m still a little worried about the whole shirt off in public thing, but I’ll gut it out and have a good time.
Meanwhile, some of our colleagues have written some interesting posts this week, here are two that I particularly related to.
Lazy man wrote a nice post about how to get exercise without feeling like your exercising. Go play sports!
Kevin talked about the importance of ramping up your metabolism (naturally)if you want to lose weight and keep it off.
That’s all for today, have a great weekend!

WOW that’s really awesome. ATM I’m fifteen pounds away from my goal, and it always feels good to see another person achieving their goals, you know?
Keep up the excellent work!

What would be your ideal weight, because you shouldn’t have too much more weight to lose, do you?
