    GW: 252 (month) - 220 by May 20 2013 (40th B-day)

    When I hit my goal weight I want to be able to take my shirt off at the beach and not feel embarrased to play with my kids next summer when they are 2 and 4 and want to go in the water.
    Additionally I want to do the same thing with my wife when we finally go on our honeymoon in Jamaica....... 3 yr Anniversary today!!!
