Here's the skinny: I've been near 300 lbs. for years and need to lose weight. I'm married to a wonderful lady, and we have a family. One of our boys often asks if I'll run with him. I've always had to tell him, "No." In August of '09, my wife learned about a couch-to-5k running program, and I agreed to try it with her. This blog chronicles our progress on that training program. I hope I'll soon be able to surprise my son by telling him, "Yes, I'll go running with you!"

BWL - Week 11 Results

Well, there's only one more week to go.  Here are the standings as of week 11. It looks like my team is guaranteed a top-two finish (likely the #1 position).  On the individual side, it will still be close.  I will likely stay in the top three, but don't know whether or not I will be the Biggest Loser.

I do want to note that, in addition to having already lost over 30 lbs., I've also dropped more than four inches from my waist. I was able to try on jeans in a retail store last evening for the first time in over 15 years.
