Day 1 - for real this time

Current Stats:
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 317.3
Pant size: 24

The Goals:
Goal 1: Weigh 250 lbs by my birthday (November 1)
I want to need new clothes by my birthday. Not a weird want, except I'm not buying any clothes until then. This includes shoes.
So, that's 8.1 lbs/week starting today.
I'll recalculate my weekly goal and adjust my eating and exercise as I go.
My weekly goal will probably shift upwards until the weight starts melting off, but if history is any guide, after about a week, I start dropping weight like crazy

Goal 2: 200 lbs by May 1
Here's where the bikini comes in. It's a smaller goal at 2 lbs/week for 25 weeks, but Christmas and Thanksgiving are included in this goal, and I love to cook.
I will also be gradually increasing the weights that I lift in this time in order to tone certain parts of my body.
More than anything, I want to wear a bikini next summer.

So, there are my (lofty) goals. How do I plan on achieving them? See the next post with "The Plan"...
