It’s six weeks since I started my diet and exercise regimen… I am now just over 200 pounds, or nearly 22 pounds down from where I started. To her credit, my wife took our wedding vows literally, loving me for better and for worse.  At the beginning of November 2011, I’d certainly never looked worse.  [...]

Less of me to love: 222 (Nov 3) –> 206 (Nov [...]

Today is four weeks since I started this physical rebirth. Sixteen pounds doesn’t seem like much to have lost, and maybe it’s gone unnoticed by other people, but there’s already a perceptible effect to me. The other day I passed by the large mirror in the washroom at my workplace… and I actually caught my [...]
