Well Chunksters, here we are at day 20, and I am feeling pretty good. Today, I ended my day 400 under my calorie limit.

Days 12 & 13 Chuck the Chunk

Well, this weekend went well on the Chuck the Chunk challenge. I have been very fateful to my diet. I have not cheated (or used any PEDs) but my people are calling A-Rod’s people to get the hook-up.
