My Weight Loss Philosophies
I've got dozens of articles about the science and psychology of weight loss in my Weight Loss and Health sections.
My Weight Loss Goal
A healthy BMI. That's it. I'm not currently worried about fashion trends or marathons (they're just icing on the cake -- err, I mean -- they're just the cinnamon on the apple). I just want to be at a healthy BMI (between 18.5 and 24.9). Once I hit that 24 on the BMI chart, I'm throwing a party; then I'll start dealing with any new goals that pop up.
