Sunday Weekly Weigh-In
I went back to work this week for the first time since surgery, my back has held up! It's harder now to plan my meals and get used to a schedule, but the hardest thing this week was eating enough, and avoiding snacking on high-fat leftovers from a pot-luck we had at a neighborhood block party on Halloween, and a Body Shop at Home party my wife hosted here yesterday - damn finger foods! I still manged to lose a pound, which is fine with me at this stage of the game. I'll keep chipping away and hopefully I'll make it to 175 in the next few weeks, before my orignal target of new years!
Highest - 297 lbs.
Surgery - 282 3/29/07
Last Week - 178
This Week - 177 - Only 2 lbs from my goal!
Total lost - 120
Total Since Surgery - 105 lbs!
This week - 1 lb

Well, I figured it was time I started joining in on this, so I've changed my personal weekly weigh in from Friday to Sunday. Here are the results:
Highest Weight: 335 lbs
Day of Surgery: 285 lbs
Last Week: 215 lbs
This Week: 210 lbs (-5 lbs)
It's been an amazing journey so far. I've basically been dropping pretty steadily at the rate of 5 lbs a week! I'm no longer obese, just "overweight" as my BMI has dropped below 30. I'm finally able to wear normal-sized clothes (XL shirt & 38 pants). I've posted some pictures on my profile if anyone wants to check them out. I also updated my avatar, but I don't think it has taken yet.
Hey Guys,
Lately, I've been struggling to up my protein while cutting carbs. I've been eating a salad for dinner for the last couple of weeks. It consists of grilled chicken seasoned with rosemary and basil, fresh baby spinach, sliced fresh strawberries, low fat cheddar, light italian dressing. Trust me, it's good!
