How I did it
How to get back in shape
It took me
10 months
It made me
happy?

How I did it: I weighed in at 210 a couple years ago, so maybe I should say this took longer...  I'd been cutting back on the food intake for a while, but only comfortable changes.  I finished school and moved out to LA, and I still had a lot of fat to lose before I felt my goal would be reached.  I had sort of hit a brick wall though.  So I removed bread, noodles, and rice from my diet and didn't replace them with anything.  I… Read how I did it…

not going to happen for a while... 11 months ago

This will unfortunately very likely have to wait a while. I’m guessing I’m going to have to wait the better part of a decade before I get to leave the Continental US’s. No worries though. There are many other goals to put into the immediate column. But the reason, as I’m proud to say, is that I’ve met the girl of my dreams and married her. That wasn’t on the list… But I think maybe it would be worth putting on there just to mark as done and extremely worth doing. First I’m going to get my wife and her family their citizenship. By then maybe I’ll have learned enough Chinese to go back to her country for a while. Still this one’s cooking on the back burner. I’m going to come back to this goal later on :)
