I'm with Fatty

I'm with Fatty: losing fifty pounds in fifty miserable weeks/Edward Ugel 244 pgs.

Fifty pounds in fifty weeks seems so doable if you break it down to 2.28 ounces a day which is how the author started his quest to bring himself back from the unhealthy weight that he had crept up to. Maybe a better description...a weight he had sprinted to after gaining 10 pounds in one month! Ugel has a way with a phrase and some funny stories about his efforts but mostly he talks about the work that went into it and how much easier it was to fall off the cart even as he was making progress. This is a guy with serious willpower issues...as in LACKING willpower and once he went off the path, he kept moving away from it for quite some time, or at least until his wife came back to town. Dude, all I can say is you better be nice to your wife and never get a divorce or there won't be anyone there to pull you back. - Christa
