7 Month Numbers

Sep 10, 2011

Well, at 6 months I hit 80 lbs. lost and then the floor dropped out.  I sat there and sat there and the scale did not move except for one miraculous time it dropped to 139 and then climbed back up again. 

I'm going to run with that 139 though and claim 5 lbs lost this past month!!  BECAUSE total inches lost this past month is 8.25!!!!  THAT is why the scale hasn't been moving as much!  The ol' bod has been doing that "adjusting & shifting" thing! 

Hence, at 7 months post-op:
           I've lost 85 lbs. since my high weight
           I've lost 66.5 inches total so far
           My bodyfat is 38%
           My BMI is 25.42 and at the very low end of the Overweight designation

It's all still working and I'm trying hard to keep up the exercise and NIX the carb snacking.  For the most part I do okay.  I could always do better though.  But, who couldn't?   ;-)

The thing that matters is all the things I can DO today!!  It's a miracle.  Life is good.  I feel very blessed.   And overnight, I lost one more pound so I'm 18 lbs. from goal.  That's freaking amazing.  I can't wait to buy the "I'm a Surgically Modified Freak!" t-shirt!
