Weighty Matters Update Yet another personal note. Sorry. A little less than 3 months ago, I posted here that I was starting the Atkins diet, with the idea being that public accountability would be a motivator. Since then, I've mentioned it not once, defeating the purpose. About 6 years ago, I decided I really needed to lose weight. To start the process, of course, I weighed myself, something I had avoided doing for quite some time (I believe I even had to buy my first set of scales to do so). The result was, of course, depressing. On into the diet, however, I discovered that my scales were wrong, and had been reading too light... meaning that when I had started, I had actually weighed 10 pounds more than the depressing amount that I thought I weighed. I went on to lose somewhere approaching 20 pounds, most, if not all of which, I managed to gain back by the end of that year. And, of course, I continued to gain quite a bit more after that. As of today, I've managed to get my weight back down to the incredibly depressing figure it was 6 years ago... after having lost 36 pounds thus far.
