Jim Longbons reporting in

Good News! My wife has decided to join me in my quest! I do all the cooking, so she didn't have much choice in the matter. My son has offered to work out with me, so that's also great news. Have not worked out or exercised yet, but it's early. Plan on doing some walking at the least today. Counting Carbs and Calories. So far so good, but it's early. Funny, but I seem to have more energy already. My biggest problem is my mind. If I can just convince myself I can do this.....I can do this. My goal is to be 300 or lower by July 1st. In the 360's now. Good luck to all, and hang in there. Sell your Budweiser stock!
