Week #3 weigh in

LOST THIS WEEK: 7 LBS
TOTAL LBS LOST: 26 !!!

WOW, this weight loss amount was unexpected, to say the least. I had a prior commitment to have a little drinking party with my wife's cousin, a commitment I made many months ago. So I honored it on the Friday night of this 3rd week. I was expecting that it would hinder my weight just a little bit, but with 7 pounds still lost, maybe I should hit the bottle more often! Just kidding, I am not a heavy drinker at all. In fact, Friday marked the 2nd time I had a drink at all this year. In 2003, I think I only drank once! Booze just isn't my thing. Food is my thing, as my waistline will vouch.

Speaking of wasteline, while I am planning on measuring my inches only monthly, I can tell already that I have lost an inch or two around my waist. I am going to have to punch a new hole into my belt soon. My dress shirts are also feeling looser around the neck. I can't wait to see how many inches I've lost at the end of the month.
