I weighed myself yesterday morning and to my complete surprise - I had lost 12lbs in one week! I shouted to the wife that I now weighted 306. She came running into the dressing room where the scale is and made me get back on. Sure enough - the scale said the same thing and we both did a little celebration dance. I do not expect this kind of loss to continue, but going from eating everything and no exercise to eating right with evercise does make a difference! Plus - I have quite a bit I can afford to loose!

Wish me luck losing the next 12!

    congrats but i'm going to be the voice of reason here, be very careful. please, that is an awfully big loss for just one week. the healthy loss is 1-2 pounds of course most people lose more than that, but 12 pounds is alot, just please be careful!!
    congrats though!!
