Good for you! Today is my 9th anniversary so I celebrate with you.
Now - put the pedal to the metal and get all your weight off. You are doing just great. Finish the job as fast as you can and then get your head in the maintenance game which is soooooo much tougher.
If you can - lose a little more then you hoped for. Try and get to a normal BMI. I was also SMO and started off at 333. I met my goal in 16 months with no cheats and dogged determination.
I didn't start serious exercise until maintenance and then I lifted weights and began walking the golf course. Honestly, you don't have to exercise like crazy as most of the weight loss victories are won in the kitchen. Exercise or just movement makes you feel better about life and about yourself. Get strong however you do it.
All the best as you continue. You look wonderful!
Happy anniversary!!! Wow, you've done amazing!!! Thanks for all your great words. Yes, I agree that weight loss is won in the kitchen. Exercise for me is just for health and strength... for feeling better about myself. :)
