Wednesday Weigh-in

You know what I love?  Aside from posing questions that can't possibly be answered in my chosen form of communication.  That's right.  What a freakishly lucky guess.  Alliteration.  And really, who doesn't love a good case of Alliteration.  We were brought up with it thanks to Mickey Mouse and friends, the pickled pepper picker Peter Piper and less obscure ones such as Lucky Luke.

Since I am fat, and I dont want to be anymore, there really wasn't a choice in the matter on what would be put in at Wednesday.  A few years ago, the first time I got serious about losing weight, I started a blog called "Fat Man in Tighty Whities".  That blog is really the spiritual predecessor to this one, only it was a lot more focused.  I did daily updates on food eaten and exercise done.  At the beginning of each week, I would pose myself a challenge, at the end of the week I would evaluate myself.  If I did well, Id get a reward.  I also took pictures of myself in my underwear to embarass me into action.

All in all, it worked, sort of (which really is the story of my life, the "sort of" bit.  Seems I can say that about everything).  I lost a lot of weight, but the problem came down to timing.  You see, two days after I started the blog, my wife left me.  This put me in an emotional state that was GREAT for exercising, but not so good for remaining sane.  If you were to track down that blog you would see a very sad record of the worst 4 - 6 weeks of my life.  It also repeated itself a lot.

So basically, Wednesdays will be Tighty Whities v.2.  Each Wednesday I will weigh in.  I will outline my goals for the week, any challenges I may wish to inflict upon myself (or hey, perhaps there are challenges you can think of for me?) and a photo of me in all my sexy glory.  Eventually.  In the meantime, you'll have to make do of a photo of me in all my flabulous glory.  I just made that word up.  Im pretty clever like that.
