I saw Dr. Walton and Jess yesterday for my one year checkup.

I've lost 5 pounds since Saturday! *Whoop*

I've lost 85% of my excess body weight. *Whoop* He said that normal is 70%. Then again, everbody who knows me knows I"m not normal!

He wants me to do a before and after on Transforming Lives.

He said to stop focusing on the scales (yeah, right! LOL) and get the VO2 thing done to concentrate now on becoming a "fat burning machine" instead of focusing on a number on the scales. He wants muscle mass, etc. He also said it might make my clothes get tight.

If THAT happens, I'm gonna stop the machine! LOL

I"ll update my ticker and catch you all when I get home this evening.

Charlotte, I'm so happy for you. What a wonderful year it has been for you, with losing so much weight. What an inspiration you are! And now, pump yourself up. Yes, the scale may creep up a bit, with muscle weight, but you'll see that you look even better in your clothes. Dr. Walton knows better than to tell a woman her clothes may get tight. That's a man for you! [He knows I love him.]
Blessings,
Mary

Congrats on a great check up!  Did you guys agree on a goal weight today?  Personally, I think you look great right now!
I have maintained for one year at this point.  I am steady at -120 pounds.  =)

We did not agree on a goal weight. He says 137 is the "ideal" but it's too thin. He says I need to lose about 15 pounds or so.

I figure I'm at goal right now. I like the way I look. Now, if  could just takes some of the loose skin and shoot it into my boobs and booty, I'd be fine! 

Can you believe my BMI says I'm still overweight???Yikes!
