FA #2
January 24th, 2009
4 month mark.
Weight -8lbs
Size -2″
Body Fat -1.7% (Currently 26.1% and my goal is 22%)

I haven’t done that in, oh, 11 years, no joke.
I feel on top of the world!

January 12th, 2009

I usually end up cooking two meals because [...]
fail
January 5th, 2009
2 weeks of binging.
Food. Check.
Alcohol. Check.
Sleeping a lot. Check.
Staying relatively inactive. Check.

Shit. I was doing so well.
I’ll be joining the other half of Vancouver [...]
