Hello, World!

For those of you who may be not be aware of this, last year around this time, I decided to lose weight and change my life around.
After a few months of unmitigated success, I started slacking a bit, but managed to maintain my weight (and girth!) as well as a normal sleep pattern.
Although I lost nearly 70 pounds, I am still overweight. In fact, I am still hovering slightly above the obesity threshold. Which is... not good.
Today... I didnt make any such grandiose decision. But for some reason, I found myself following the old pattern I had established for myself, of eating a small amount of food every 2 hours (plain bread, 2 slices), drinking lots of water, and working out a bit on my stationary bicycle.
It's interesting to note that I seem to have been converging back towards this pattern on my own, without even conciously deciding to follow it.
This new blog will be in english... since it seems that most of my friends are scattered across the globe, and my "real" friends here in Portugal have no problem reading english anyway.
My lunch was soup. The only "real" food I had was dinner. Bread and water throughout the day, and 5km on the bike.
I felt a little weak around dinner time, but I'm all better now :)
Tomorrow I will go out and buy me some fruit. It's healthier than bread, and the simpler sugars in it will keep my energy levels up throughout the day.
I just hope I can keep it up for another 4 months like last year...

I'm sure you'll keep it up! You usualy do that when you're determined with something, like in this case ;)
