Enter a summary of your goals, or just a few you would like to share. I set interim goals lotted out in 25# increaments. I do a little something for myself when I reach and maintain that goal for a week. I buy something for just myself when I reached #100 goals.

Give an overview of what you are doing to meet your goals. I got serious about my weight loss in 2003. It took almost 2 years to get below #300 mark. I do my weight loss with diet and exercise. This program was low fat & high fruit and veggie diet that I set myself. Then I meet a lady who is now my wife. I then entered two years of just maintaining less than #300. After we were married and settled down I started getting serious again (August 2007) but with a different diet plan that I developed because of my concern of blood sugar levels. I knew I had to minimise my carbs in my diet. I started with this at #295. Check out my ticker to see where I am now! Update*** I had a Heart Attack on 04/20/2009 so now I am also a HEART Attack survivor.
