OPTIFAST- A NEW COMMITMENT TO BECOME HALF THE MAN I AM

I'm the "healthy sized" lawyer in the pic. The picture has me making my vows to serve as a board of director for my local bar association. This post is my commitment to loss weight through the optifast program. I wasn't always heavy. It's just been the last decade or so of my life. Optifast will be the first diet plan that I sign up for and it requires basically 20 weeks of no food other than 400 calories of shakes that they give you. It's taken awhile for me to start the program- several meetings with blood work, EKG, etc.. But my first day on the diet should be May 1st. I plan to document my experience in this blog- both the good and the bad!
