Groceries....

So I decided to pick up some groceries. I noticed that I was pretty much out of food in the house. I guess it was time. Only so much you can do with frozen strip steaks when you don't have anything to make with it.

So now I have fresh fruit, fresh veggies, milk, bread, all kinds of good stuff. Plus today or tomorrow I get my delivery from Papa Spuds! Fresh veggies, fruit, bread from a local online farmer's market. They have organic and locally (most things) grown stuff! I'll let you know how it turns out.

Hopefully I'll get a chance to post more recipes in the next few days.

Stop Eating You Fat Bastard

Originally that's what I was going to call my new blog. :) I thought some might not take it in the right light. So I decided to call it the Trek to 200. Is it possible for a fat guy to get down to 200 lbs? I guess we'll find out!

Check out my FAQ for more information on me and what the plan is.

I don't know if it will work but what the hell, it certainly can't hurt. :)

Check back and see how I'm doing if you're interested. If not no big deal. I'm doing it for me, not you.

F.A.Q

Q: Who?
Me of course!, and now Scott, Perry and Charles who have recently joined the site.

Q: What?
A fat man trying to get down to 200 lbs.

Q: When?
Now!

Q: Why?
Uh, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say because I'm fat. :)
Oh, and there are all kinds of health benefits you get from not dragging around 100 extra pounds or so. Less risk of heart attack, stroke, diabetes, all kinds of good stuff.

Q: Where?
Here! Well, virtually here.

Q: How?
Well, I figure I'll try my patent pending method of weight loss...
STOP EATING YOU FAT BASTARD!
Seriously though, I'll start with a good diet and throw in some excersize for good measure. It should work according to all the stuff I've read.

Q: Will you post more to the FAQ?
Of course I will! As soon as I come up with some more questions I'll post them. If you can think of a question you think need to be on the FAQ, post a comment and I'll take a look.
