Quick Weight Update

So the plateau is over. Yeah for that. As of this morning I have lost 80 pounds. That is twice Dermot. That means that before I lost the weight it was as if I had a Dermot in my right arm and a Dermot in my left arm. I am carrying that much less weight right now. Wow. That's a lot. The funny thing is that food is much simpler now. I eat a lot of potatoes, sweet potatoes, beans, brown rice, carrots, broccoli, and salad with oatmeal for breakfast. Oh and an apple, orange, or pineapple thrown in for some sugar. I have also started working out again. I stopped riding the bike during the summer because my life had no structure and it just didn't happen. Now that school's back on I have a schedule and I rode the bike every day last week (M-F at least). I also find it easier to eat right when school's in session because I don't have any food at my office and I can only eat what I bring with me for lunch (and dinner on Thursdays).

Eighty pounds is amazing. Congratulations. I'm having an awful time staying on a diet. I suck so bad at will power.
