I have a couple of these countdown clocks around. They run on a single AA battery. I like them a lot. I was going to pimp the merchant’s site to you, but it seems it’s gone.
This one is counting down to the next time I step on my physician’s scale. You’ll note that I have two goals listed. One is numerical (my weight goal). The other is to shed another blood pressure medication. I am on two now. I would like to drop to one. (I have been on as many as four simultaneously.)
Healthy, skinny people? Please work hard to stay that way. It’s a lot easier to maintain than it is to sustainedly misbehave and then try to reverse course.
At that goal I’ll still have 65 pounds to go, but I will have lost 52.
And there’s a reasonable chance I won’t be the biggest guy in the room anymore.
Hammer down!

My favorite countdown clock currently reads 1,151 days.
Miria, there’s an unstated goal too. I have a garment I’d desperately like to wear by Christmas.
And Amen. What a horrible thing we’ve done.
