So I had a good week based on the scale. Loss of 4 pounds but more importantly I hit a loss of 50 LBS 44 of which have been in the last four months where I have been really focused. I was happily surprised considering I didn’t feel like I had put that much work in this week but hey I’ll take it. I can definitely tell I’m losing weight but I’m not seeing as dramatic a difference in looks as I expect maybe its just because its harder to notice because I’m doing this the right way gradually.

I really didn’t think about it until I got to this point but I am really setup nicely for the next couple weeks/months because I should hit major milestones every two – four weeks or so based on the milestones below.

Milestones:
6.2 lbs – 50% to goal and COLOR CHANGE!!!!
15.5 lbs - Under 200 for the first time in forever
24.2 lbs - No longer obese ever again
35.8 lbs - 75% to goal and COLOR CHANGE!!!!!

Definitely looking at it this way gives me a lot more to be excited about as some big short term goals are coming up instead of just thinking I still have another 24.2 lbs to be overweight rather than smaller increment goals.

Anyways just some thoughts for the day.
