harder and longer (that's what she said)

I'm down 160 lbs since July 20, 2009. DUDE! Mongo -- you rock!! If Yuku would let me, I'd stray from my normal complete lack of profanity, and drop an F-Bomb at your amazing achievement... but alas... instead I'll say: Holy Moly!! You gotta feel great about where you are!

My accomplishment is much smaller in the last week... still holding steady in the mid 190's. Some days 194, some days 199, but doing nicely. Running a little more than walking now, and hitting my calesthenics harder and harder. I had a physical last week to buy some more life insurance -- and at just under 2 weeks away from my 40th birthday weighed in at 196, with blood pressure 118 over 62 -- and a resting heart rate of 64. The nurses all started peeking in to see "the 40 year old with a 64 heartbeat". It's apparently gotten pretty rare.
