Day 9: I went in to work for about an hour this morning to see how the team was doing. I got a few comments on how I am looking slimmer, and others quickly chimed in. My belly is noticeably smaller. It was nice to hear. My wife and three boys have all commented the last couple of days on how I look like I have lost weight, as well. So when we packed up for the beach I was pleasantly surprised to find that my favorite swim trunks were having trouble staying up on my waist. So I switched to my favorite pair of khaki pants. Same problem. I had to get a belt to hold them up.

I finally found the digital scale I have been missing while looking for something else in the garage. (We recently moved from out of state, so we still have a few boxes - like 25, really - to go through.) So, I put it on the garage floor and zeroed it out. Five tries and the following weights: 317.8, 318.2, 317.9, 320.1, 319.3.

Stupid scale. I'll try again in the morning and see what it says.

Is it possible that I've lost 17-19 pounds in 9 days? Or should I buy a new scale? It didn't seem to be lying to me when I was pushing nearly 340 last year. It was only a pound or two off from what the scale at the Dr.'s office said after a bought with flu-like symptoms. Who knows?

Here's the breakdown the last 9-days:

Calories/Carbs for my first 9-days at 6'7" and 335.0 lbs even.

2160/55.43
2031/183.35
2225/149.13
1789/104.94
2071/108.23
1158/51.26
1316/56.70
1265/59.10
1782/33.71

(Mind you that on the day I found this app I put away nearly 4400 calories and 467 carbs on a light day of eating.)

As you can see, I am getting a bit smarter on the carbs. Amazing what I have turned away the last 4-days, especially. A trip to the grocery store on Wednesday had a few products dialed in. (I'm still shocked about onions. Killing me.)

The beach was simply amazing. Especially with my amazing wife of 23+ years by my side. She is a treasure to me. It was a wonderful day, my friends, and I trust you had one, too.
