Woohoo!

I'm happy to say that two weeks after my delicious birthday meal, and less than a week after visiting the Puyallup Fair unencumbered with children, I am back on a downward trend. At 253.2, I weigh less than my previous low of 254 on my birthday. This makes me quite glad, as I was just speaking with my friend earlier today about running some baselines on the basketball court next summer. At least I'll have plenty of time to look for shoes. Hahaha!

30 pounds in 3 months!

On a whim, I weighed myself this morning, and it read 254.  I was heartened by it, but I hadn't put it all together yet, as I had other things on my mind.  I knew it was somewhere about thirty pounds, but I let it pass.  while I showered and took the garbage out before departing for work.

I just went back and looked at the spreadsheet (Thanks Google Docs!), and there it was, clear as day.  My first weigh-in was June 3rd, and I was 284 pounds.  Today, September 3rd (Happy Birthday, kEnny!), I am 30 pounds lighter.  I am truly surprised and pleased at how much progress has been made.  I have another 14 until I reach my first goal of 240.

As the continuous streak of good weather is quickly fading from view, I'm looking forward to revisiting some of the places we went walking when we first started this.  I think we'll have a lot more fun at some of those extremely steep-hilled parks.
