Never Trust a Skinny Chef...: Ups and Downs:
It's an old post off of a food blog that I enjoy reading, but it gives me hope. I know everyone I talk to about losing weight says "I'm sure you can do it," but I've had my doubts. But seeing someone who actually did exactly what I plan to do really does boot my hope reserves.

For the record, this guy went from 280 to 179. Granted, it took him twice as long as I have initially planned to devote to this exercise, but since I have similar goals (I weighed in at 273 on Monday morning this week, and I hope to be at 180 by late 2008). Let's just hope that I don't spend a year and a half hovering at 220 like Mr. Conway in the link...

I just realized that I'm on my 50th tank of gas in my truck. 13,800 miles, 768 gallons, and $1777 later, I have some statistics:

average MPG: 17.6
average cost per mile: 13¢
average miles per day: 26.1
average cost per day (only for gas): $3.43

Interesting, eh?
