What???? Another year over already? I suppose I’d better do the traditional summary thingy, then.
Weight
Let’s look at the numbers first, shall we:
January 1: 216.2 pounds (15 stone 6.2 pounds, 98.1 kg)
December 31: 222.8 pounds (15 stone 12.8 pounds, 101.1 kg)
That’s a rather annoying rise of 6.6 pounds (3 kg). On the other hand, it is 8.4 pounds (3.8 kg) lower than my highest weight this year, which was 231.2 pounds (16 stone 7.2 pounds, 104.9 kg).

I’ve taken an alarming number of photographs this year – over 7,000, which is by far the most in any year so far. Here’s a reminder of my favourite of 2012:

And finally…
Happy New Year to anyone and everyone who reads this stuff.


I love that photo, too – truly exceptional. Why don’t you join me in my “Fabulous at Fifty” goal? Seeing as how you’re 50 and all. We’ll self-improve together!
