'You said you wanted to lose between 20 and 25 pounds, and you ...

It turns out I'm prouder of how many inches I shed in my 12-week weight-loss program than the number of pounds.

Congratulations that's a great accomplishment. I'm sure your grandmothers would've been very proud. May you have the will and strength to keep it up for years to come.

That's not the point. It's a column showing readers what it's like to lose weight. A large portion of our country is obese and you don't think telling the story of trying to become healthy is news? Buy a clue! Plenty of us got it, why can't you?

I agree, so many of us live a sedentary lifestyle that we are quite naturally overweight and or out of shape. I recently dropped 20 pounds and have another 30 or 40 to go. For me the secret was lowering carbs and getting myself outside.

So, I started a website to help myself and others like me to lose weight, spend more time with their friends and families. http://www.gettingoutside.com

I hope it's a helpful resource for you.

Thanks! I'm keeping a blog of my efforts, "My Road to Kilimanjaro".

Kind of embarrassing eself-portrait.:-)

Here is the latest entry, actually something I wrote before I lost the 20 pounds. A friend read it and said it was hilarious, so I decided to post it.

Let me know if you like it or not!

Thanks!
