The Speculist: It's a New Phil, Week 34

The Big Six-Oh

Down one more pound this week to 237, bringing me (at long last) to a total weight loss of 60 pounds!!!

Amanda was kind enough to decorate her party hat with insignia appropriate to the occasion and to lend me a bear to model the hat for the celebratory photo shown here.

Very nice, eh?

The next big milestone is 75 pounds. At the rate we're going, that should be sometime between Halloween and Thanksgiving.

By the way, I know I'm a little remiss in getting this entry up, but I don't want to fail to mention that there was an excellent Glenn and Helen Show last week on the subject of real food. I've become a huge fan of real food over the past eight months. Especially fruit. And tomatoes.(Technically, they're fruit anyhow.) And Caesar's salads. And that really chewy Italian bread they sell at Whole Foods -- the kind that only has three or four ingredients. Now that's real food.

Also, as a follow-up to the show, Glenn linked to this blog, The Crisper, where blogger Dave Johnston tells how he lost 51 pounds eating real food. Way to go, Dave!

Awesome Phil! I think there is something to be said in chunking this overprocessed junk that's really been pushed on the public in the last 50-60 years.

Maybe society can get high tech enough to allow us to get simple again. If that makes sense. :-)

Anyway, Congrats on the big milestone.
