Last Thursday, I stepped on the scale and it told me I was just five pounds over the two-century mark. The last time I saw that number on a scale was probably back in college, as I zoomed past it on the way up.
The great thing about the web is that all my friends documented how truly huge I was, how well I filled out a t-shirt, how I always seemed to be playing pool and boozing it up, and of course, how elegant my belly looked hanging over my belt. (The belly and the belt are both history, each replaced with smaller versions.)
When I hit 200 - probably close to the end of this month, which was my goal - I'll put up some snappy new "after" pictures.
