Another freaking back injury. hurt my back while carrying a 100 lb. box of hardwood flooring. however I still managed to lose 8 lbs. this month. I'm happy with that and whilst cleaning up to install the new flooring I found an old Old Navy jacket I bought and only wore once because it didn't fit. Guess what it now fits with room to spare. It's my new winter coat! WooHoo! As with most of my clothes now they are loose and beginning to hang on me. When I break the 300 mark I'm going shopping. Thus far I've lost 5 to 6 inches in my waist and am down 2 to 3 shirt sizes. So it's way cool. 13 more lbs. and I'll be comfortably in 2X possibly even just an XL. My metabolism must be up because even though I was out of commission for a week I still got my weight down. Soon very soon I will begin lifting again when my back heals. Then the lbs. will melt!

313.0 lb Lost so far: 52.0 lb.    Still to go: 43.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
