Week 18

Time once again for the sensation that’s sweeping the nation… stepping on the scale at your WeightWatchers meeting.Guy on a Scale

Last week wasn’t so great.  This week on the “Bad John” list, a couple days worth of bad choices that sent me well into my ‘grace points’. But on the “Good John” list, I mowed two lawns in 75+ degree heat AND ended the week with 14 grace points.

Anton, drum roll please…

Week 18 Loss: 3 lbs.
TOTAL LOSS: 31.8 lbs.

Only 7.2 lbs. until I meet my 10% Goal!

** Yes, I know… if you do the math you will know my initial weight. I’m working up the courage to post the number.

    Hey, that’s really awesome. Glad to see you’re back on the upswing. Or downswing, or whatever analogy that should be. Yeah, I’m reluctant to post my starting weight, but I’m gradually working up the nerve.

    I’ve been reading the “Belly Off” stories on Men’s Health. Some are truly amazing. I was reading one today that COULD BE ME someday. I found myself wondering, at what point do you divulge the starting weight?

    Come on you wimps! What are you afraid of? I was 334 lbs when I started my diet. See, that didn’t hurt one bit. What’s the big deal? :)

    That’s awesome, John — 10% is a big deal!

    I don’t think you need to be embarrassed by the weight you started out with… I think it’s rather a cool start to your health testimony and where you end up!
