Joining a little late, but I'm in. I have been trying to gear up to lose weight for months now, and for some reason, I was able to start on Monday.

Monday, I was at my heaviest ever: 169 (I'm 5'6")

Today (Wed), I am at: 165.5 (thank goodness for that initial H2O drop!)

I would like to be at 140 by the end of March. (135 would be better, but that is pretty aggressive.)

A couple of months ago in August I squeaked by to finish the Shasta Summit Century weighing 160. Next August I want to do the Super Century (130 miles & 16,000 feet), and I have GOT to lose weight if I am going to get fast enough. That is my motivation.

Thanks for doing this!
