Day 25
I've been losing weight. Not a ton of weight, I was 228 at the gym today (I think I started this thing at 333. But I'm also starting to look slimmer. Robin notices it too. And my doobs are starting to look like pecs. You can actually feel some muscle under there and when I wear a shirt that's tighter up top it's not like I'm looking in the mirror and saying, "Damn...I have tits." I'm definitely starting to see some improvement - it's nice. Believe it or not I'm even curtailing my spending drastically. I should have done a baseline month first just to see you how much of an idiot I was. I still have work to do in that department but I think I've been making better choices with my money, that's for sure.

Robin and I were celebrating my pod being on TV.
