About

So I’m trying to start another blog, I guess.  This one will be shorter, more haphazard, and far less insightful (not saying much) than any previous attempts … in the hope that I actually stay with it.

The primary purpose of this blog is public humiliation in hopes that it spurs motivation.  I am big and fat and slow and embarrassingly bad at sports in which I could have only recently been classified as highly as “below average”.  Anyway, this blog will chronicle my weight loss… my epic battle against fat that is trying to kill me… my meager attempt to live a healthier life style… however you want to look at it, I guess.  I’m dropping weight.  You get the idea.

I’ll try to discuss what I’m eating, how I’m training, and how both of those experiences are affecting me… along with other various thoughts.

I’ll try to provide distances or times for training, and I’m going to try to grade my food consumption based on both enjoyability and nutritionally integrity.

At the bottom of each post will be a driving push for motivation: my current weight. Unfortunately, I wear it reasonably well, so while you’d notice I’m far from svelte, I don’t think people really understand how jarringly unhealthy I’ve become…  Well, now you’ll know (if you’re bored enough to read this blog).  And I’ll know you know.  And I’ll have to do something about it.
