18 weeks down 110 lbs
Just wanted to let you guys know that I am now down 110 lbs. THis last weekend I went shopping at Walmart...Okay for some of you you must be thinking "Soooo what" Well for someone who has had to buy all of his clothes in a big & tall shop most of his life this was a major milestone. I am now in size 46/48 pant and a 1x shirt (down from size 65 pant 5x shirts). I hiked a mountian, and I have joined a gym I work out 3x week and walk 5-10 miles on the other days. Check out my profile and see the results from the loss of 100 lbs. It is working...and I feel alive.
Wowee kazoweeeeeee! Way to go Doug!!!
Your determination really shows and I'm totally in awe of the gains you've made in your life (the hiking, walking, working out, and the joy of WallyWorld). Keep up the phenomenal work and keep posting. I'm pretty sure someone who has lost 110 lbs has plenty to contribute!
Hugs,
Susan
Yo Doug -
That's awesome. I know EXACTLY what you mean about shopping at Walmart. I never ever bought anything from a 'normal' store before. How much of a shock was it to pay $14.99 for a pair of pants and not $50+ at a big and tall shop????? The fact I actually can wear the sizes they stock is amazing to me still.
