February 8, 2010 06:04 PM 167 and going strong.

Somewhere right after Thanksgiving, I had hit the heaviest I had ever been in my life: 182. For my height (5'8), that's pretty bad. It's considered overweight. Worse, I felt it... I felt lethargic and bloated. I didn't like the person in the mirror. I know that's repeated multiple times by multiple people, but once more, as this was the heaviest I had ever weighed, I knew I wasn't at my optimal fitness. So I joined a gym. I began going pretty regularly, but finals cut into my ability to attend with a solid regularity. But after I came home from Orlando, I managed to begin really working at it. At least five or six times a week. So where does this leave me? Well at this point I can proudly say that I am dropped down to 167 this morning. That's the lightest I've been in... two years! Wow.
