I lost 90+ pounds on Weight Watchers. And I kept it all off for over a year. As paradoxical as it sounds, though, when I started to run a lot, I gained back 20 pounds. Runners tell me it's not unusual. My Doctor says it's not a problem. But you know what? That low weight mark was -- is a point of personal pride for me. I want those 20 pounds gone.

Retain my hard earned good health. Run a 1:59:59 Half Marathon. Lose back to my original goal weight.

I am working out and watching what I eat. sparkpeople.com is helping me to keep an eye on the balance of what I am eating.

I am from Catonsville, MD on the SW corner of Baltimore City. I am married since 1973 to a wonderful woman whom I refer to online as She(WMBO) WhoMustBeObeyed. She saved my life by dragging me kicking & screaming to Weight Watchers where I lost 90 pounds in 18 months employing all the same principle that the Spark teaches.. We have four children. Dr Dani in Savannah (1974), Attorney Dave (1987), Student Patrick (1992), and Hollywood Mike (1993). And we have one Grandchild from Dave, Colin (2012) I will be running in the Savanah Rock and Roll Marathon on 5 November.

Running, Biking, and Swimming have become for me a way to stay young and fit. I am pursuing a goal of running a Half Marathon or greater in each of the 50 States. And ultimately to run 100 Half Marathons anywhere.
