AHH!!!! I can’t believe it. So close! I know that the number doesn’t really mean anything in terms of my long-term goals and it’s just another number but come on. The symbolism isn’t lost on me to see a 1 in front of my weight. I had a solid week with good eating and some solid workouts. I really was hoping to get there this week just so I can stop thinking about it but I guess my body had other things in mind. DAMN! I hate the fact that I have to wait till next Monday to hopefully see the end of the 2’s for me. Can’t help but think about the what if’s such as what if I went to the gym an additional day or what if I didn’t go out for dinner Friday night or what if I didn’t have that breakfast sandwich yesterday but I keep trying to tell myself that if I cut those things out completely then this truly is a diet as opposed to a lifestyle change because when I get to my maintenance weight I will be doing these things within reason.

Milestones:
0.3 lbs - Under 200 for the first time in forever
9.0 lbs - No longer obese ever again
20.6 lbs - 75% to goal and COLOR CHANGE!!!!!
40.9 lbs – According to BMI I will be considered in the normal range

200.2 lb Lost so far: 68.3 lb.    Still to go: 50.2 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
