Yesterday I took measurements and photos. I published it, but then was too afraid of how awful they looked...I just can't stomach (sorry about the word choice) the way my "before" pictures look. I feel like I need some progress pictures or "after" pictures before I can publish the starting point.
So having recently completed 3 weeks of my new routine (weight lifting alternated with days of cardio), I am finally able to see 2 pounds dropped ... 216 to 214. According to my goals I can reach 172 by middle June if I lose approximately 2 pounds of fat per week. Because I will be expanding muscle also, the next fat loss will be higher than the overall pounds lost.
I'm visiting the YMCA for some of my workouts but most of them are on the driveway doing jump rope (20 minutes of jump rope per session) or weights with the adjustable dumbbells -- those are great, by the way. Finally that old weight bench is getting regular use!

Happy New Year
Highlights of the year (click photo for larger image):
Lisa: Teaching 50% time for elementary kids at Eagle Ridge Academy, biking to work in good weather.
Kirk: Finished landscape project with Edelweiss Designs, did the MS 150 with the boys, 3rd year at Capella as a senior project manager.
Alex: Diving team, 9th grade, doing great in science and engineering.
Artem: Diving team, 8th grade, cross country team, doing great in school this fall!
Aliya: Flute, Dance Exchange, 7th grade, new babysitting jobs, fantastic student.
As a family, we enjoyed time with relatives in Beaver Island (Lisa's side) in the summer, and we were part of Julie and Nick's wedding in October, including Grandpa Johnson. We finished our home office project this year. We found our treasured adoption scrap book. In 2011 we hope that Lisa's hip and foot issues will clear up.
We sincerely wish peace, happiness and health to everyone. Blessings to you! The Johnsons wish you a very happy new year in 2011.
