Welcome to the Wasteland


Here are my vitals:

Sex: Male
Age: 34.99 years
Height: 5' 11" (5' 10" if I'm being honest)
Weight: 232 lbs.

What's my deal? Well, I've hit my breaking point. The low point. Bottomed out. I absolutely cannot gain another ounce. I barely fit into my size 38 pants. I have some size 38 pants that don't fit. Go figure. I cannot be so fucking fat that I wear size 40 pants. Psychologically, that would devastate me. Everyone has their own breaking point. This one was mine. So, it's time to lose weight.

I'll take you along for the journey, assuming you are actually reading this right now. That's unlikely. Why? Well, when I decided to set up yet-another-fucking-blog-about-nothing (YAFBAN, not to be confused with NAFTA) I needed a name. Want to know a secret? THERE ARE ABOUT A ZILLION GOD DAMNED I'M-TOO-FAT-TIME-TO-DIET-HERE'S-MY-WEIGHTLOSS-STORY-LIKE-YOU-CARE BLOGS!!!

Care to guess the names? Well, I tried a bunch before I found this one. I tried: fatguy, fat2thin, journeytothin, waistland (hee hee), and so on and so on. Want to know another secret? THEY ARE ALL DEFUNCT! This series of tubes we call the internet is littered with thousands of deserted weight loss blogs. And it's not like they were around for 3 years until tubby lost weight. NO! They contain about 3 posts on how fat they are and then... SILENCE.

Well, I'm determined just to beat most of those lonely bastards to have at least 1 year's worth of posts. That's my commitment to you, faithful reader (ha). Enjoy the show.
