Based on some of the discussion in the Real Life & What's Happening thread, it seemed like some folks would be interested in a thread of encouragement and accountability for their physical fitness goals, so here you go!
My goal is to weigh less than 180 lbs/ 81.6 kg/ 12.9 stone, with a stretch goal of specifically weighing 165 lbs/ 74.8 kg/ 11.8 stone. I suppose it would be good for me to have a deadline, so I'll choose US Labor Day, which is Monday, September 5th, 2022.
Current weight is about 185 lbs/ 83.9 kg/ 13.2 stone.

- Counting calories.
- Changing my ratio of home-cooked meals vs. restaurant meals to heavily favor home-cooked meals.
- Limiting alcohol consumption to @ social events only.
- Training for a half-marathon. I'm nearly done with week 3 of the 12 week program.
