I have a weight loss tracking spreadsheet that tracks my weight loss for me. I weigh myself every AFriday and enter it into my spreat sheet. As of yesterday my weight was 294.8, which means I have lost 102 pounds!!!! I honestly can't believe it.

This morning I met my girlfriend for breakfast and I was getting seated as she came in. When she said down she said "wow you are really losing weight, I did't even recognize you from the back". I was like "whatever" but it was a nice compliment. She also asked me about my health in general and I have to say that was the first time any asked me about that. Most people just want to know how much I have lost. It was nice that she cared enough to ask. I told her how things have changed for me since surgery and stuff. She also told me my clothes look too big, I have to say I agree. Today I worn one of my old 26/28 shirts that last year I had to literally squeeze into. So I assumed that when I put it on this morning it would now fit good. NOPE. When I came home I looked in the mirror and it did look way too big. It just amazes me how much my body is changing. I am losing weight, but my weight is also shifting around. It is all very exiting.

I even noticed, I can walk faster, I walk more. I tend to part further away and don't care how far I have to walk. I don't get tired walking around like at the State Fair and my back doesn't hurt like it used when I walked too much.
