Which may seem like a strange post, but for someone who over 3 years ago was considered Super Morbidly Obese (which sounds like a Marvel Superhero) I am proud to declare I am now OVERWEIGHT!!!

I weighed myself today, and I am down to 228. OMFG!! I think the last time I seen that was .. hmmmm .. birth ?!?!?!?

To think that I started at 435 pounds, and now I am 8 pounds away my self-imposed goal of 220 is mind-boggling. Also thinking that all last year I “knew what I was doing" was actually doing a disservice to me. This January I decided to become refocused, get back to basics, up my exercise, and try to make 220 by the end of the year. I have a feeling I may do it – with God’s help (of course).

I need to thank EVERYONE who has been with me on this journey, and has given me love, support, advice and that greatly needed swift kick in my (_______x_______). I know I couldn’t have done it without you all!!

Good Luck on your Journey !!

Tom
