2 MINOR FARTS, 3 month anniversary

Hey everybody! Despite the fact that my wieght loss has been slower and steady, I have now had plenty of room in my 42 sized pants, time to move to 40's and probably closing in on 38's. Cannot remember the last time i have been around that size, probably back when i was in college, many moons ago. Also when I was in the shower, my wedding ring fell completely off my finger, i have to take it off when I shower now, for fear of losing it down the drain. Stinking up this place! al

Al, Congratulations on your progress.  You sure are doing great in such a short period of time. Before I had surgery, my wedding ring was so tight that I had to have it cut off.  It was a major moment when I could get it resized so I could start wearing it again. Keep up the good work and keep sharing.

Compared to others, and the fact my weight loss has slowed down to almost a stop, it sure sometimes doesn't feel like I am doing all that well, 53 pounds in 3 months. I just wish i could go back to 2-3 pds a week. al

Hey Al, Try not to compare and despair over rates of weight loss. My own progress is slower than many guys but still way better than it ever has been on a healthy, guided regimen. Progress comes in many forms and any progress is still progress. It all accumulates. Congrats on the FARTs and hang on that wedding ring! My wife gave me the third degree when I went to the gym without mine--I'd taken it off to shower and forgot to put it on. 'Course I was flattered that she thought the women at the gym were eyeing my ring finger and hoping to see it bare! As the commercial says, "Don't leave home without it." And the shrinking waist ought to tell you something . . .

 i found out that somehow a pair of 48 pants were the ones i was wearing when i made these comments, now i really feel like crap! al

Hey, whadda ya gonna do? I'm barely out of 48s myself, but boy do the forties feel great after the high 50s and a pair of 60s! We all miscalculate. Just keep on keeping on, as they say. There's no timetable and no deadline here.
