[Lap Counter]

I'm the middle of a serious spring get-in-shape campaign after a winter of relative sloth.

Of course some weight reduction is needed. I've found posting pictures of the younger, slimmer me on the refrigerator is extremely motivating to get me not to open that door, or if I do, to make the healthy choice.

I'll never get younger, but that's no reason not to look better. I'm extremely happy that as a kid I was an amateur photographer whose favorite subject was me in my Speedo.
