3-week vegetarian diet

My original goal was to be down to 199 lbs. by Thanksgiving. I later changed that to the end of the year, giving me a little over a month more to lose the 81+ lbs. that was my goal for this year. Well, in hopes of reaching my original goal of 199 lbs. by Thanksgiving, I decided as of last night to go on a 3-week vegetarian diet. As it works out it will then end the night I fly out of Denver for Las Vegas, then BeiJing, and then ChangSha. (Although I had considered starting KungFu earlier, I have decided to wait until after my trip to China.) I am frustrated being stuck here at around 209 lbs. and want to start losing weight, mass and inches again! I also want to kiss the 200's goodbye for good.

It's a Sin, Pet Shop Boys

When I look back upon my life,
it's always with a sense of shame,
I've always been the one to blame.

For everything I long to do,
no matter when, or where, or who,
has one thing in common, too…

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin.
It's a sin.

Everything I've ever done,
everything I ever do,
every place I've ever been,
everywhere I'm going to…
It's a sin.

At school they taught me how to be,
so pure in thought and word and deed.
They didn't quite succeed.

For everything I long to do,
no matter when, or where, or who,
Has one thing in common, too…

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin.
It's a sin, It's a sin.

Everything I've ever done,
everything I ever do,
every place I've ever been,
everywhere I'm going to…
It's a sin.

Father, forgive me,
I tried not to do it.
Turned over a new leaf,
then tore right through it.
Whatever you taught me,
I didn't believe it.
Father, you fought me,
'cause I didn't care,
and I still don't understand!

So I look back upon my life,
forever with a sense of shame,
I've always been the one to blame.

For everything I long to do,
no matter when, or where, or who,
has one thing in common, too…

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin.
It's a sin, it's a sin.

Everything I've ever done,
everything I ever do,
every place I've ever been,
everywhere I'm going to…
It's a sin.

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin.

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin.

Confiteor Deo omnipotenti vobis fratres,
quia peccavi nimis cogitatione,
verbo, opere et omissione,
mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.

210#!

70 pounds (31.75kg) later, I have 11 pounds (5kg) to go to make my year-end goal (though ideally I have always wanted to have it all lost by American Thanksgiving)! I am very happy about this, but am afraid that the next 11 pounds (5kg) will be the hardest yet to lose.
