Hi. I'm guessing you're here for one of two reasons.
A) You are a fat person like me, and you are looking for some inspiration, or some answers.B) You are somebody who knows me - maybe even one of my students. Well, enjoy. If you know me well, you know this has been a lifelong thing for me...a struggle, a battle, a losing one at that...well, that part of me is now dead. That makes sense, since all of me was headed in that direction.
Whatever the reason, if I can help you, that's great. If not, then thanks for stopping by.
There are two simple reasons this site is here: one, I want a diary of what I am doing with my life. That's a selfish reason really, but I can live with myself. The other is to help anyone who needs it. I have been helped by some online journals, and I appreciate it enough that I want to do the same.
I'll tell you one thing though, I will pull no punches on this site. I refuse to condescend to anyone. I have no tolerance for BS from myself or anyone else. If you don't like my opinions, that's cool, but please remember, they are just my opinions. If you think I'm full of shit, you may be exactly right. Please understand that in order to get myself into the right state of mind, I had to be blunt in the questions I asked myself. I'm not going to get into the "we're on a journey" stuff. I've seen a million sites with those kind of empty words. You've seen them - they contain journal entries for a couple of months, and the last ones are all written with that sense of despair that just screams, "I'm in trouble". Then they just end. You know what's happened. I don't want that to be our lives. I really do know what you are going through. It's our common bond - one which I know we want to erase forever.
I've spent many years of my life getting to be 378lbs, and I've lost almost as much weight as I've gained, crazy as that seems. I have too much experience with losing weight and then gaining it back. I honestly wish I didn't have that "wealth" of experience.
If you feel like checking this place out, feel free to do just that. I hope I can pull this off. No, I know I will. Remember, no matter how much weight I lose, or how successful I become, I will always be a guy who once weighed 378lbs.

My e-mail identity is a play on words. You know that song, "Pretty Fly For A Wite Guy"? I like that song, and I love hockey like a religion. So I combined the two. I know it's stupid, gimme a break.
The name of this site is actually taken from my favorite music video of all time, Motley Crue's "Home Sweet Home". Not that you care, I just thought I'd throw that in.
