The 3 mile marker

I have been running for almost 3 months now. Today I accomplished my goal of running 3 miles. I started at two thirds of a mile and added 1/6 of a mile each week. 3 miles may not be a long run for some people, but for 250 pounds of fattjake 3 miles is a pretty good job.

This morning I weighed 249. That means I've lost 13 pounds in about three months. About a pound a week. I'm real happy with that. I have lost weight faster in the past, but this time it wasn't that hard so I feel like I will be able to maintain it. I'm about one third of the way to my goal. If I can lose 26 more pounds in the next six months I will be 223. That is right where I'd like to be.

Most of the functionality in my diet tool at iphone.fattjake.com is working. One thing it lacks is the ability to edit erroneous information. I need a good JavaScript programmer to implement the ability to edit previous entries. Once this is finished a few cosmetic things will need to be done in order to publish the site.
