Thank You Past Scott

Scott with lots of mass density

On Sept 5, 2011 past Niki and past Scott made a lifestyle change. We started doing the "slow carb diet" found in the book The 4-Hour Body by Timothy Ferris. Past Scott was feeling inspired after hearing Ferris interviewed on The Nerdist. As well, my recent birthday, and license picture that went with it, were very depressing. Normally in those situations I say, "Screw you future Scott", and don't do anything, but not this time.
At that time I was 260lbs, and well on track to eating my way to 300lbs. I feel about food much in the same way an alcoholic would feel about beer, but maybe a little more so. Today, December 21, 2011, marks the point when the scale said 220lbs. I've probably also lost around 3 inches to my waist. Maybe a little more.
My goal was to hit that before Christmas. It's a few days early, but present Scott would like to thank past Scott for making a me positive decision. Present Scott really dislikes the word diet, prefers it to me more permanent, and will keep endeavouring to make me positive decisions. Hopefully future Scott can continue to enjoy being not obese, and having clothes that don't press uncomfortably against his belly. The fact that I don't consistently shove large amounts of delicious sugar based items into my mouth are in part due to my lovely wife Niki. If you would like to see a couple of examples of the food we have been eating, you can check it out at Niki's blog "The Slow Carbavore". That is about it, I encourage anyone to start making "you positive" decisions, it feels great. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Cheers,
Scott
