Why lose weight?
Mainly for medical reasons: middle age is approaching (or rather arrived), I’ve relatives with diabeties, a mild heart issue, high blood pressure, feeling lethargic.

I also admit maybe for the look too. For a while now I have had trouble finding clothing to fit – indicating I am ‘outside the norm’.
I also caught sight of myself at work in a full length mirror.

I’am using the weight watchers points system (online – I am unable to get to meetings due to location and work hours)

I really started two weeks ago – lost 6lbs – I guess the easy bit..

Back in late 1999 I bought my forst copy, and been buying them ever since. I now have over ten years of them – and I sadly admit to have not really read most of them.

They would get a skim and I’d dip into an article or two, usual drawn in by the image or graphic, but I would not read the whole. In a stange way the first 18 editions will be from the pre-911 world, I wonder how they will read?

I want to improve my knowledge, to be able to add something to a conversation or two.

I might even blog my reivews to keep me going.

If I read one a week, I will be at this for over two years.
