It all depends on how overweight you are. If you are substantially overweight, just dropping down a few pounds will really energize you, and the weight will come off fast too.

In January I weighed 292 pounds. Over the course of the last 8 months I have dropped down to 250. I am feeling a lot better about myself and as a result I have been slacking off on my diet. I need to get back on the train.

If you are serious about losing weight. I will start posting my weight with you. You name the day that you want to start and the frequency of posts. I'm not going to wager anything, because I am losing weight to keep it off. That means slow and steady weight loss.

My goal is to get less than 240 by the end of 2006. Less than 220 by the middle of 2007. Anything else after that will be bonus.

No matter what ... good luck in your weight loss quest. It is really worth it. Unless you are 150 pounds wanting to get down to 140. Then I just give you the middle finger.
