Start day.

I weighed this morning and it was not as bad as I thought. Just 161. That is up 16 lbs from my lowest and down28 down from my heaviest. The goal is 130. Here is the game plan. Do more light weight and stretching to help my body feel better right away. Try to get an hours worth of exercise on most days, but realize every day is not reasonable.

Eat mostly veggies, fruits, and legumes. No beer or wine except on the free day. Stay away from the white stuff except on my free day .

I would like to lose 2 pounds a week. At that rate I should be able to reach my goal in 15 weeks. That would put my goal date as, how funny, Easter Sunday, March 23. I like that.
