17 weeks of SGX

Well, I've finished Round 1 of SGX and all I can say is .... F**K YA!

I've gotten so many complements of the last few days, its been great. I can't wait to see how the family reacts. But while all these people are saying "Ben you look so good!", in the back of my head I keep hearing "just wait until they see me next summer..." ;-) I think I'm addicted!

Just because I really haven't posted anything recently... so I remembered to ask the folks in the gym downstairs to get BF reading which was '23.7%'. Cool, while there is some doubt as to the accuracy of these readings it still show that I'm making progress. Don't know what's reasonable rate to expect, but this puts me down 1.6% in two weeks. I weighted in at 183.5 lbs on Sat morning. Woo hoo. I've got 3 more weeks to go. I just ran out of my supplements but the stuff I ordered last week would arrive tomorrow. I also ran my grill out of gas, and used up all my chicken... need to got shopping tonight!

Also over the weekend, at my rehearsal I had yet another person come up to me and say "Have you lost weight?... a lot of it?" :-D

And on a fun note, a friend found the following comic strip online and thought of me:
