I’m fat. So? I’ve tried a “public accountability” weight-loss plan before (see the “I’m a Fatso” category in my blog), but it didn’t seem to work, as I’m still fat. Anyway, I thought I would try again this summer, and this page will be dedicated to that goal. Not only will I be blogging about it (keep checking my “I’m a Fatso” category for those updates), but I plan to add another layer of humiliation. Let me introduce you to Summer Epicness 2011:

I will sport a mustache until I lose 20 pounds!

It is going to look ridiculous. My goal is that every time I feel embarrassed by how stupid I look, or catch someone snickering at my behalf, it will drive me to stick to my diet, and keep working out.

In order to keep track of current results, you may do the following:

In case you were wondering, here are the rules I’ve set up, and how I plan to do it.

Goal:

• Starting weight: 257.4 lbs (5/16/11)
• Ending weight: 217.4 lbs (by end of summer)
  

Rules:

1. Starting on Monday May 16, 2011, I must shave my entire face, except for my mustache. I must continue shaving everything except my mustache at least once per week until I lose 20 pounds.
2. Once I lose 20 pounds, I may shave the mustache if I choose. Then rule 1 repeats until I lose 10 additional pounds.
3. Step 2 is repeated until the end of the summer (based on when school starts).

Stipulation A: I may keep the “soul patch” if I so desire, in addition to the mustache.

Plan:

• Follow the Weight Watchers diet plan, except for 1 day per week (pizza night, duh…)
• Train for a 5k (again…)
• 1-2 additional workouts per week
