Other than the few days I was in Vegas, I have been on the treadmill 45 minutes per day. I try to do some weight lifting on the machines for another 20 minutes. And, if i have anything left, I may hit the racquetball or shoot some hoops. If I eventually get down to my goal weight, I may dial it back some. But, at the moment I go to the club EVERY day without exception.

In addition, I have just been eating better foods. No fancy diets. Lots of fruits and vegetables. Smaller servings. Even the few exceptions are done in moderation.

In the end, it was about motivation. About finally flipping the switch and realizing that I wasn't going to have a lot more chances to do this. If you want to read about my journey, you can go to my blog that's listed in my signature. A sad and funny recap of how I got to the point where I decided to stop hoping and talking about it and actually just do it. The blog has acted as the best form of accountibility that I could imagine and has been extremely cathardic and therapeutic.

Thanks for the comments above. I appreciate it.

Once again, well done. Made me feel a little guilty about skipping my workout today, but also motivated me! hehe
