The Run to 299 - Day 3

Pounds to 299.9: 7.97

Weigh-in: 308.0
5-Day: 307.96

This is going to be a short one, though I hope I can follow it up with some great news later today.

My meeting with the Publisher is later this afternoon, and my presentation is all set. I'm nervous, as I want this badly for more reasons than I can possibly list here. I'm trying not to get too worked up about it, as most of the time when I get my hopes up, they come crashing down. And I don't think I could handle that this time.

Having the chance to run a magazine that I felt such a passion towards while providing my family with a better, more comfortable life - it's all I really want.

But I also know that there won't be any final decision made today. My best hope is that I walk out of this meeting with them saying that they're interested, and need to discuss some things among themselves. Just as long as I don't hear "no" today, I'll take some hope with me.

Wish me luck, and I hope to be the bearer of good news later tonight.

By the way, I'm less than 8 pounds away from getting out of the 300's FOREVER.
