This journal follows an IT Geek’s weight loss journey. It will chronicle the exploits of the Fat Geek in the many pictures on the home page…into a lean, mean, ultra-buff IT Geek machine.

Follow the Fat Geek daily on Twitter as he eats right, exercises hard and drops pounds. Provide him with some much needed motivation, or, with your own inspirational stories.

Some of my favorites:

TV show – Battlestar Galactica

Book – Of Human Bondage (by Somerset Maugham)

Movie – Dances with Wolves

Song – Whiskey in the Jar (Metallica)

Favorite Hockey Team – Toronto Maple Leafs

Favorite Football Team – Dallas Cowboys

Favorite Vacation Spot – Grand Canyon

Favorite Quote – “My centre is giving way, my right is in retreat; situation excellent. I am attacking. Attaquez!” – General Ferdinand Foch.

My favorite quote really sums up how I feel about life. Moreover, I think we should all live our lives by that quote. Attaquez!

Lastly, my dog’s name is Joey.
