This morning I weighed in at 286.8 lbs, which for many would seem to be a lot - and it is. What makes this remarkable is that less than 5 months ago, on November 10th, 2010, I weighed 380 lbs. Have a look:

Today, I look a little different:

A "serial dieter", I've failed before, but I have never lost so much, so quickly, and remained commited for so long. I have 92 lbs to go to my ideal target weight - I want to become as fit and healthy as possible. At 38, I may be on "the back 9", but I promise to make the last half of this fitness journey successful.. Thanks to all my MFP friends who have joined me for this trip - I could not have done it alone. My diary is open to friends, so send me a request if you wish to join me the rest of the way!....SSG
