Shrinking the Pile - July 13, 2007

(American Heritage Dictionary)






Shrinking the Pile is a record of my attempt to become a more healthy dude by losing a large accumulation of weight through exercise and a healthy diet.

It is my hope that a weekly accounting to the world will help to keep me focused on my progress. The exact nature and content of these posts has yet to be determined. We’ll see what develops – and simply go from there.

Starting weight: 255 lbs

Rat: It’s called “Box Me In.” I will sell them a cardboard box and tell them to shove themselves inside it until they see results.
Goat: That’s ridiculous.
Box Me In insert: A few days after sealing the box, you will become hungry. DO NOT BE AFRAID. The box is WORKING!
