New Contest and New Blog

I'll try to find the link to the old blog.

Nah, I probably won't.   http://crobin11.blogspot.com/

Anyway, a brief summary of things up to now.

Decided in 2009 when I was over 350lbs that things had to change.

Began with a simple picture diary of what I ate everyday for awhile, that is still somewhere on flicker, and tracking calories.

Then began with a more conscientious diet consisting mostly of having a breakfast everyday and eating more salads and vegetables.

All this got me down to an average weight of 310lbs with a lot of float from 305 - 315.

Finally a contest happened in 2012 starting in February and running until June.  By the time the dust settled I was down to 275lbs after a brief flirt with less than 270.

Now I've found myself floating back up, edging over and back across the 280lbs mark.

My mother and I are now having a new contest, the old being with a bunch of fat dudes here in town, and so I've got a new chance to recommit myself.

And I need it.

The rules for the new contest are simple.  Lose all the weight you can, anyway you can, from Nov. 1st through Dec. 25th.  The person who loses the highest percentage of weight over that time will be paid by the loser an amount in dollars equal to the total weight lost by the participants.

So I lose 60 and she loses 40, she ends up with the highest percentage and I have to pay her 100 dollars.  So simple.  Realise you can also do this with multiple people where the losers divide the amount of the total prize and pay out to the winner.

So this new blog will be my attempt to track this new contest.  Hoping to add photos and still manage the charts and goals and such too.

See ya tomorrow.
