Down 5 more... Will it ever end?

Hey, folks.

I've been busy as hell lately, but I've still found time to lurk.  I've been between here and Manila quite a bit.  In fact, I just got home from there.  I'm finalizing my Philippine citizenship (I'll be a dual US, Philippine citizen) so I can accept one of the positions in Manila.  I'm also looking for a place to live.  Anyone on my Facebook knows all of this as I really only have enough time to update there with any consistency.

Anyway, in the midst of all of this chaos, catching buses and running for trains before the door closed, I noticed that my size 27's were getting a little loose and my shirts weren't so form fitting anymore.  I rarely weigh myself and haven't in a few months.  Apparently, this new lifestyle is working out well for me as I'm down another five pounds to 140.  I couldn't believe it.  I thought I was finished losing at 145.  So, hopefully in the near future when I get a tummy tuck, that may remove up to another 10 pounds.  I'll be 130 then.  Unbelievable.  I would have never thunk it.

On a side note,  I know I talk a big game about how I've become as far as cruising guys and picking them up, blah, blah, blah.  But recently in Manila, I was brought crashing back down to earth.  I was at The Podium, a super upscale mall in Manila.  I was going up the escalator and noticed this really, REALLY hot guy going the opposite way.  I looked at him and smiled.  He looked back at me, like really straring into my eyes, and smiled.  Then, I collapsed.  I cracked under the weight of his hotness.  Big bad me, I looked away, turned red, and pretended to be focused on the nearby Godiva chocolate stand.  For a second, I felt the "old" me make a cameo.  I reverted, just for a second, to the "he's so hot, what could he possibly want with me?" attitude.  But as I got to the top of the escalator, I just laughed at myself and walked on.  There'll be more men.

Glad to see that everyone is doing so well.  My known presence here will be erratic at best, but do know that I am still lurkiung.

Cheers,

Chris

PS- Posted some new pictures.  Just let me know if you can find those five pounds.

Yeah.  I have a size 26 waist now from a high of 50.  My waist has been the most dramatic change of my weight loss.  I've turned into such a dainty little guy.  Even my cousin who's 28 years old, only 5'3" and 120 pounds wears size 31's.

Chris,
You just look fantastic. 26" is so skinny!  Just keep  yourself healthy and you know some people will just be skinny. I hope you are not getting the "Oh, you are too skinny from people you know."

In the states I heard that statement quite a bit.  But here in the Philippines, everyone is so damn tiny that I just kind of fit in.  As I said before, I was surprised by how little of a guy I am.  I'm small framed, small shouldered, small hipped, etc.  I'm just a little guy.  That's what's been waiting for me under that metric ton of fat.  Whoda thought?
