My Reverse Fat Project 2006
A true internet favorite of mine is The Fat Project that started on Spark.com. These days Spark is all about online dating and doesn’t contain a lot of the fun stuff I wasted my time on, but the Fat Project lives on!
I have decided to start my own Reverse Fat Project. Yes, it is time for me to once again check myself before I wreck myself. I lost about 70 pounds between February 2005 and the end of 2005. However, since about February 2006 I’ve been on a bit of a hiatus. I used to workout about 5 days a week–that was before I had a full time job to worry about in addition to my home and family life. (another story entirely) I no longer take that time to care for myself and it’s showing. Gradually, I’ve picked up the bad habits of munching on sugar and candy (which honestly 99% of the time makes me feel yucky) which has caused me to pick up about 5 or 10 pounds.
So here is my Fat Project Version 2006. My goal is to get to the ideal weight zone for my height–I’m 5′5″ so I should weigh 119-149 pounds. This means losing about 30 pounds (and really I’d like to lose 50-60) I’m pulling all these numbers out of my ass though because I haven’t stepped on a scale in over a year!
I’ve updated my iPod and made my first visit to Loose Park to walk (eventually it will be running again!)
Wish me luck!
PS. I took a few minutes to hit the swings over by the Rose Garden–as usual!
