About Motivation
Greetings, everyone. Today was the first weigh in. The holidays had really packed a punch, as my weight spiked up to an even 290 on the official start of my log. Wow. the term “overweight” doesn’t do the current situation justice.
As explained in an earlier post, I’m attempting to become healthier and live well, all while targeting an 80+ pound weight loss by December of 2010. Or, as the project title states – Forty 200. Two-hundred pounds by age 40.
This project will hopefully not only detail my attempts (both successes and failures) at weight loss, I will also review and chronicle:
- Exercise Programs and Techniques
- Cooking and Nutrition
- Food and Beverage of all types
- Health, Medicine and Supplements
- Lifestyle Issues and Changes
- Product and other reviews
- Helpful resources and tips that work (or don’t, for that matter)
- and insights into my state of mind and attitude, which I’m sure will be just fascinating.
It should be pretty interesting, well, to me anyway. I’m equally certain that it will be difficult, with plenty of highs and lows along the way. That’s why you’re here. While I would love to receive words of encouragement, advice and tips as I work towards the goal, even snide remarks and discouragement will be worthwhile to serve as motivation. Let’s keep it reasonable, of course.

Who knows? This may inspire you to start your own “Age|Target” project.
And of course, now I have two other reasons to get into shape that I didn’t have until a few years ago.
I’m really looking forward to this project, so please join me, and wish me luck!
