My Mission

On January 1, 2011, I set out on a personal mission to live a healthier lifestyle.  Of course, as one of the many overweight Americans, I decided to start with losing some weight.  I set a goal to lose 25 pounds in six months and to lose about four pounds a month.  I would like to reach my goal weight of 150 pounds by July 1st of this year.

On April 1st, I had fallen five pounds behind schedule.  With 18 pounds and three months to go, I adjusted my monthly goal to six pounds.

If you'd like to see how I've done thus far, check out the "My Progress" page.

UPDATE:  On May 3, 2011, I revised my goals again.  April was a terrible month... I would have had to lose 15 pounds to catch up by June 1st.  That just isn't healthy or realistic.
