The thought occurred to me that I probably should set short term goals along the way to break up the trip to weighing 220 lbs by January 2012.
The first and most obvious goal is to weigh in under 400 lbs. That said, I have 28 lbs. to go to reach my first goal of 399 lbs. I'll use 2.5 lbs. loss per week as the factor.. which means 11.2 weeks.. ok we'll call it 12. This puts the date at or around April 1st.
I think I can reach this sooner that April 1 but we'll go with that date and set a new goal if I reach it early. After hitting the 399 mark, the next goal will be 350 lbs.

I am a middle aged American man who is extremely obese and a former "Freestyle Eater". I want to change my lifestyle and learn to eat to live rather than living to eat. This is not going to be just a diet change to lose weight, it's a life change. I want to eat well and improve my fitness. This blog is an outlet for me and a record of my journey which began on January 1st, 2010, Stalled in April of 2010 and restarted in April of 2012
