Day 261
-3.6, 52,465
(To be updated now each Friday. The first number is pounds lost since early January, and the second number is words written in Book 3.)
The blog has been getting a lot of views lately, and the blogger wishes to thank the world for that fact. He doesn't know why he's speaking in third person, but hopes to rectify that situation by the second paragraph.
Next week I'll hit Day 265, which means I'm 100 days away from turning 40, and just as importantly, it means I'll have only 100 more of these blog entries to write! I'm very proud of myself for what I've achieved here the past eight and a half months, but you better believe I will LOVE being done with it too! Writing a blog entry every single day is so much work!
Speaking of weight loss, last week I weighed myself for the first time in months, and was quite perturbed at the number staring back up at me. Thankfully, I weighed in again last night, and I'm down 3.6 pounds already, so I feel a bit better. I have 15 pounds to lose still to get back to my goal weight/low adult weight, and I plan to accomplish this before my 40th birthday on May 1st.
Speaking of book writing, that's been going VERY well for me lately too. Right now I'm on page 142 and have 52,465 words written. I'm about to start writing Chapter 15 of a 37-chapter book, so I still have a long road ahead of me, but the story is now coming together very well. Copious notes and outline work have really helped me on this project. As you might imagine, writing one book is work enough without it being the third and final book of a trilogy, where you need to resolve all topics and characters, and answer as many questions as possible.
So yeah, life is good, blogging's good, book writing's good, and my weight loss is good! Plus today is Friday--Chipotle Day!--so the blogger believes he is a very happy camper. ...oh, shit.
