My “weight year” (December to December) is now over. I walked / jogged over 500 miles this year, averaging about 10 miles per week (max 18) with my worst day being Thursday and best day being Sunday on average.

I end this year around 193, about where I started last year but nearly 40 pounds below my max weight in 1997 and within 10 pounds of my since-college low achieved during the Great Stomach Flu of 2006. The first half of the year was challenging because I wasn’t on Sudafed for my allergies the entire time and it acts as an appetite suppressant.Weight Graph 2009
