I Can't Believe I'm Doing This!

Well, here we are. Just you and me....and all these extra pounds. Over the course of the year I am going to lose 80 pounds. I won't be done but it is a good start. In the next few posts, I will tell you a bit about me, how I got here and why I finally decided to do all of this.

Before we head off together, I should clue you in to a few things:

1. I'm a Christian. It is the most important thing in my life and my views are filtered through that perspective.
2. I'm not perfect - in fact, far from it! I know there will be failings and stumbles. I will write something that you might not like or take issue with. Please try to remember that I am writing about my feelings & thoughts. They are not always politically correct.
3. I have a bit of a twisted sense of humor! **You Have Been Warned!**

If you can deal with those things then I think we are going to be ok.

Well, that is it for now. I'll post my weigh-in stats each week starting with my next post and will jot down the rest from time to time. Please feel free to send me a comment or email but understand that it may take me some time to get back to you.

Thanks for checking in! Can't wait to talk to you again.

Mike
