Do you struggle with trying to stay in shape, or maintain a certain weight?

Ever since I was a kid, trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle has been a struggle for me. Getting the proper amount of exercise is not a problem but eating less is. I love to eat.

While I have never been obese, my weight seems to go up and down like an elevator. During my adult years I have weighed from 170 pounds up to 210 and everything in between. What does that mean? Well, it means that I own pants that go from a 33 inch waist up to 36 inches and a good collection of large (in shape) and extra large (out of shape) shirts, as well.

Today is March 1, 2008 and since December of 2007 I have gone from 175 pounds to 195. Fatboychronicles is my attempt to record my efforts and struggles of getting back in shape. Additionally, I would also like to take a look at the more humorous side of exercise and weight gain.

Remember, if you want to get in shape and lose weight, you are not alone in your struggle.

Welcome to the journey.
