Thanks, everyone. I am definitely in better shape and feel better about everything. I know I often feel like I am still that overweight person I was before, and my shyness still reflects this (wasted energy, otherwise, so I thought, trying to communicate) as well as my questionable sense of balance - I have a different center of balance now. I have an upcoming vacation to Germany where it'll be hard to resist certain indulgences (beer), but might be able to stave off any gains through rye breads (my favorite), and lots of walking. I'd be happy if I just didn't gain anything while there. I'll be shooting for 170 as a short range goal and then maybe focus on gaining some muscle from there. I definitely could use some meat on my spaghetti arms.
