Hello Everyone,

Sorry I haven't been around for a while.  I've been working now for about 3
months and the time has gone fast.  I never got to my goal of 175, at least
not yet.  I did get down to 179, but due to my work schedule, I've cut back
on the amount of hours to exercise.  I've also have slacked a bit on my
eating habits, but still eat better than I have most of my life.  My weight
stays between 180 and 185.  The last three nights I have gone to the gym and
spent an hour each night on the eliptical machine, burning around 3300
calories.

I hope everyone is doing well on their weight loss goals and  maintenance.
I'll try to get in here more often than I have in the last three months.
For those of you who don't know or remember me I weighed 300 pounds last
August 27th I believe.  I've lost around 120 pounds in less than a year.  Oh
yes I turned the big 40 about a week ago and am very happy about my results
over the last year.

Sheding the weight that I have, has really helped me get around better since
my flying accident back in July 2001.

Well I'll check back tomorrow to see how everyone is doing.

Adios,

Paul Patterson
