<p>My progress (you can read <a href="http://chrislewisblog.com/2008/09/08/help-me-out-with-thisyou-are-my-accountability/">initial post here</a>) is slowly trending downward on the weight loss.  Still have 22 lbs to go on my quest.</p>
<p>I popped a blood vessel the other day trying to button a pair of pants and it only motivated me more.  <strong>No way</strong> I&#8217;m backing down now!</p>
<p>I have these cool new bands a friend at church brought me that I keep at the office.  There not very manly, but they basically let me do one long workout that lasts all day!</p>
<p>So far, the <em><strong>hardest thing</strong></em> to even attempt to give up has been the late night munchies.  I have not been 100% faithful, but I am definitely moving in the right direction.  Thanks for the encouragement!</p>

<p>I went to the doctor the other day for a sinus and bronchial infection I have had for about 7 weeks.  What I discovered while I was there was <strong>HORRIFYING</strong>!</p>
<p>Since shortly before I broke my ribs on June 13 (post <a href="http://chrislewisblog.com/2008/06/16/this-would-be-funny-if-it-didnt-hurt-so-bad/" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://chrislewisblog.com/2008/06/21/bored-and-restless/" target="_blank">here</a>), I have been less active than normal.  As a result I have gained 24 lbs in less than 2 months!!!  OH MY GOSH!!!!</p>
<p>I have set a target of 35 lbs to lose and I am going to periodically post my progress.  <strong>Anyone is free to openly hold me accountable!</strong> I am serious about this.</p>
<p>It has been 5 days since that doctor&#8217;s visit and I am down 4 lbs.  31 more to go!</p>
