How a 250+ Pound Couch Potato Got Healthy

Monday, April 28, 2008

This morning the scale in the bathroom was 3.5 pounds more than yesterday. How does that happen?

The gym scale this afternoon showed 170 pounds. Minus my clothes, that's right around where I was in the bathroom this morning. *sigh* no telling what's the deal.
