Mike Living Large: Mike's Weight Chart

Mike's Weight Chart: The Ups and Downs

Believe it or not, this chart shows the ups and downs of my weight since I was born. I have noted events and some of the weight reduction programs in which I engaged.

I will post my weight on the first day of each month for the forseeable future.

Note: Pre-1967 weights are based on various sources including applications, registrations and specific recollections. Post 1967 weights are based on medical records and other contemporaneous records.
