I am constantly adding to the site.
Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. Email
me any that you have.
On the 11th of July, 2002 I joined Weight
Watchers. On my first weigh-in, I weighed 494.8 pounds! That's darn near a quarter ton of
flesh! But I wasn't suprised. I knew I weighed almost 500 pounds and knew that I needed to do
something about it.
I had hovered around 500 pounds since 1998 or so, and it was starting to take it's toll. That
same year, I was diagnosed with sleep
apnea and had to start using a CPAP machine to help me sleep. That should have been my wake
up call (no pun intended), but it wasn't. I continued to maintain my weight.
My knees began to hurt more. My feet were almost constantly sore. I could barely get up off the
couch and I could barely fit into a vehicle to drive. I decided (with a lot of prodding from my
wife) that it was time to do something. So I joined Weight Watchers.
With these pages, I hope to keep abreast of my continuing weight loss. I hope that they will help
others as well. Let me know if they do.
