In the split photo above… the pic to the left was taken nearly two years ago, at an outing to the zoo.
The pic to the right was taken last week–same t-shirt, and as chance would have it…a different zoo.
Can you tell the difference between the two?
Hint: I’m wearing different sunglasses.
Just kidding. (Although the sunglasses are, in fact, different…I’m notorious for losing them.)
Most of the weight has been lost in the last 3 and a half months. This is why I am wearing the same shirt. This picture tells me it’s time to get a new one.
The Wild One tells me the picture on the left is not me at my heaviest, either.
Weight lost since Jan. 1: 34 pounds.
Total weight lost: 48 pounds.
Woot!
I’m almost halfway there…
(This post wasn’t really about the zoos. And no, I’m not showing you my “tail.”)

Jeff,
Congratulations! Getting healthier each day!
By the way, I like the new gray color of your blogpage. I liked the maroon too, but it’s nice to see this slate hue.
Have a great Sunday!
Blessings,

Congrats Jeff.. well done.. sometimes being a disciple is about disciplining ourselves.. not that I know the concept experientially 🙂
Congrats! I need to do the same, but am having a hard time shutting the pie hole or getting out and exercising.
I tried Jenny Craig but all I lost was my personality.
Jeff,
Way to go man. I need to do some work as well. It’s difficult to force myself to workout after a long day at work.
Keep doing it.
Blessings,
Gary
Thanks, everyone, for the kudos and well-wishes. The real test will be when I come off the meds…need to make sure I have good habits in place to keep the weight off. But for now…this sure feels good. 🙂
LOL, Mark!
Jeff!
Great job!
I need to keep working on my body.
Mark!
Way to make the Starbucks come out my nose. Hmmmm I think I should give up Starbucks
