Coming Up on an Unofficial Milestone

Last April I weighed 313.2 pounds.  Although my starting weight on my blog was 296 pounds, it was not the heaviest I've ever been.  I started jogging and continued until my wedding.  After the wedding, I spent more time just enjoying being married than I did worrying about my health.  I ate whatever I wanted and kind of gave up on the whole exercise thing.  I started my blog, and today I weigh 267.9 pounds.  I did the math today and realized I have lost 45.3 pounds.  I'm 4.7 pounds away from having lost 50 pounds since April!  Naturally, I want to lose more weight than that, but this is a good start.

  4. Holy cow, that is So crazy! Whenever you do weigh-ins and write about how much weight you've lost it's so motivating. If you can do it I can too!
