Godzilla's Weight Loss Rampage

Yes, it's a rampage. Let's face it. Everything Godzilla does is a rampage.

Yeah, so here we go. Weighed in at 262.2 lbs this morning. I'd do so much better in a zero-gravity environment. I had a reasonable yogurt/strawberries/banana lumpy (not a smoothie, I don't use my blender much) for breakfast, and then had a bowl of "Mesa Sunrise" cereal with soy milk to load some carbs for bike riding. I rode about 25 clicks including one long, wicked, lung-searing hill.

Hoping to parlay the will - and pressure - of the group into lasting results.

I have the typical motivators; looks, abilities, health, etc. But there is one thing that's come up, and perhaps some of you have noticed. Overweight people lack credibility. I'm a manager at my work, and the perception that people have is that overweight people are undisciplined, lazy, even incompetent. Once people have anything to do with me, they see that those things aren't true, but I'm tired of having to overcome the stereotype.

Also, I'll admit to some vanity. I've been showing up in a lot of photos (there's been a real PR push at my work) and honestly, I'm not liking what I'm seeing.

So I'm charting a new course. In the words of Father Henri Martin Didon, "Citius, Altius, Fortius!" (faster, higher, stronger).
 
Welcome :)

I have to also admit...photos are a big thing for me...my sons are now taller than I am and I can no longer hide behind them...haha..or skillfully angle them in front of me..so its now lose the weight or my kids will have not a single picture of mom ever again..haha.
 
All right. Rode my bike to work today. About 40 minutes each way. And it rained on me all the way home. Thanks for nothing Weather Network! Thirty per cent chance of what? Drowning?

Anyway, it feels good. Some young guy passed me on the big hill coming home, but we'll meet again one day. Oh yes. We will meet again.
 
LOL. Love the name. Love the attitude. I actually got on my bike and rode all of 8 miles? I had a hard time sitting the next day. The bicycle seat is my enemy.
 
Hello friend from BC! :D

Good luck on your journey. In some time that young guy is going to be yelling 'Godzilla!' as you pass him on the big hill coming home! :p
