Hello! I am Jon. I am a generally enthusiastic and animated person, but I have led a rather sedentary lifestyle the past few years. My family worries about my weight and my health. I'm still young (relatively) and healthy (BP: 106/76, Cholesterol: 132, Cholesterol/HDL ratio: 2.4, HDL/LDL ratio: .83) so I figure now is the time to get off my ass and get myself to a healthy weight. In March 2009, I adopted a more active and healthy lifestyle. So far, I have been successful. I average one and a half pounds a week in weight loss. It's slow, steady, and moving in the right direction. Feel free to contact me for any advice.
