Phat Phil Needs to loose weight

I work 7 days a week running my business first for my goals now for my grown up children s
future, in the 36 years not even taken the time to go on vacation alone with my wife. Then in August of 2015 one of my son's got married and we had a 2 week vacation at a camp in Maine.
Whats this to do with losing weight well all the wedding photo's and vacation photo's the first time in many years I got a look at what I look like and boy had I got fat. Now the FIGHT! down 9.5lbs since Jan 1st bring it on.

    You have to want it real bad. But they say it's doable. I need to lose at least 60 lbs. Good luck

    Great job, Phil! Keep it going! The best feeling and accomplishment is always stepping on that scale and seeing those numbers go down! 9lbs is AWESOME!

    I suspect you call yourself Phat Phil, because it rhymes with Phil. My friend I wish you would not be disparaging to yourself, by saying phat. We are all here for you. Take one day at a time. You are an inspiration.

    Thanks for all the welcome and good luck messages. Well day 21 and down 10 pounds. I eat all my calories between the hours of 5pm - 8pm after the first couple of hard days now find this diet maintainable. Lifting weights and using a water rower for cardio 67.5 lbs to go.
