It's Official

According to the government, which I trust implicitly, I am no longer obese.

Standing 5' 10" and weighing in at a slim 208, I have cracked the obesity barrier and am now merely overweight.

While my diet will continue, I plan to remain firmly in the overweight category the rest of my life, as I have no intention of striving for the 173 pounds I would need to achieve to be "normal."

(Let's pause briefly for the social scientists in the crowd to ruminate on the idea of "normality," it's creation, function in society, it's racism, sexism, heck all the "isms," and the devastatingly awesome papers we could write about this subject.)

Alright then...30 more days of the diet to go!
