Happy Monday, my very small scattering of blog readers. It's time for another weekly weigh-in and I decided it was about time for some new pictures, since the other ones were from about a month ago. Dawn was kind enough to take a few of me yesterday. Without further ado:

This morning I weighed in at 283. That means since August 29th I have dropped 38 pounds. I'm at a slow and steady weight loss rate now which is to be expected. Most important is that I am feeling great! I have more energy, and I am much more active. I'm fitting into clothes which have hung unworn in my closet for years.
I'm still not sure if I am hitting correct calorie counts. Leslie got on me about that again, and rightly so. I'm putting together a list of the things I seem to eat the most often lately and their nutrition content, so I can get on top of that. Insufficient calories can greatly slow weight loss and isn't healthy for you for a number of reasons.
I really appreciate the encouragement and support of my friends and family, it really does make a great difference in my ability to stick to my guns.

ReplyDeleteWent back and checked out the first "picture time" so I could compare... awesome progress! You're doing great! That's one of the first things I really took notice of after I lost the first chunk of weight... how much better I felt! There were so many more things I could do without getting exhausted, and I actually wanted to do them! Keep up the great work! I'm so proud of you! :)
