a.k.a. "Why Is Your Weight My Business?"

In my forever quest to bring down the abdominable belly and keep a healthy tick, I am documenting my weight program (a) as a constant reminder for me to follow it and (b) to perhaps compare notes with other struggling fitness victims. Routine consists of alternating between Week A (3-4 days) and Week B (3-4 days).
