Goal Result

It was my goal to hit 179 by Valentine's Day. Unfortunately, I only got to 187. However, I decided that I didn't want to maintain until after Lent anyway. I decided to give up eating out. I love to eat out, but I realize that restaurant food is always going to be more caloric and have bigger portions that what I would make it at home. So my new and improved goal is to hit 174 by Easter. That also means that I will be maintaining during my trip to Europe - which is a big perk.

If you have a half an hour I would recommend watching this talk by Jamie Oliver (and by talk I mean rant)

He's not very articulate, but he is very passionate. He also has the advantage of being right.
