Total Loss at Three Months: 75 Pounds

Mar 22, 2014

Holy mackerel. I've lost a lot more than I was expecting to! At the three month mark, and counting the weight I lost on the pre-op diet (Yes, it counts IMO!) I've dropped 75 pounds. SEVENTY FIVE! That's an amazing number to me, and I'm just thrilled with it! Now, I realize that the rate of loss will not stay that high forever, but I'm certainly going to enjoy it in the meantime. Someday, when it gets harder and harder to lose the last little bits until I reach goal, I'm going to be able to look back and see just what a great start I had, and remember that a great start just means it's that much more important to finish strong.

That loss comes with very minimal exercise, as well. While I'm convinced that weight loss comes more from the amount and type of food we eat, I'd still like to add in exercise to tone and shape. In addition, I like the way my body feels now, and I can see that it will feel even better if it's stronger and healthier. So, next stop on the journey: finding an exercise program I can stick with.
