There's no way out of here. That is precisely how I felt when I woke up and headed to the doctors office on December 24, 2014 for a 'wellness' exam. When one is more than 100 lbs overweight, getting back into some kind of shape and normal weight can seem daunting and nearly hopeless. It can seem like there is no way out, no way out of here. Sometime during that 30 minute 'wellness' exam, I summoned the desire and the conviction that I should and could change my life. Although it is a cliche, a change in life begins with a simple decision. If one desires it, there is a way out of there...
245.3 lbs
I weigh 245.3 lbs.
I lost 6.8 lbs this week.
I lost 63.7 lbs in 73 days. Today begins Day 74.
I have lost 8 inches on my waist.
(I am just now beginning to wear 42" waist blue jeans)
I am still at the beginning of a journey that never ends.
I weigh 245.3 lbs. (73 days ago I weighed 309 lbs)
I have lost 20.6% of my weight since Dec 24.
I have lost nearly 2.7% of my weight since last Saturday!
I have had an another wildly successful week losing 6.8 lbs.
I have a BMI (Body Mass Index) of 32.81 (still Class I obesity)
I had a 42.0 BMI on December 24, 59 days ago (Class III obesity)
I will 'graduate' from Class I obesity into simply 'overweight' in a few weeks (224 lbs)
I have one word to describe how I feel right now - amazing
...I know how to begin this week...
