Bio

Tipping the scale at 230 (5'10) in May, 2007, at 30%+ body fat, I decided to do something about it. My blog, formerly a political blog, is now exclusively about that continuing journey. Having now racked up nearly 60 pounds of fat loss and almost 20 pounds of muscle gain -- now weighing in at 190 and on the way to 10% BF -- I'm ready to reveal my "secrets." I'm enthusiastic about helping others achieve real results. The mainstream advice is mostly wrong. One need only take a look around. You can find out more about my background here  (http://www.freetheanimal.com/about.html); here are my latest progress photos (http://www.freetheanimal.com/root/2008/09/periodic-photo-progress-update.html) and in case you're of the opinion that my rather high saturated fat intake is harmful, here's my latest lipid panel (http://www.freetheanimal.com/root/2008/07/lipid-pannel.html), as well as my wife's (http://www.freetheanimal.com/root/2008/09/more-results.html).
