158.5 lbs puts me, finally, out of the obese range, with BMI just under 30. So happy to be “just” overweight! I know BMI is this artificial number to many, but it’s meaningful to me. I used “obese” as a self-descriptor in the past, to myself and others, so leaving it behind (hopefully!) is a big deal.
A bigger than usual drop, so some analysis of what might have been a factor this week: 1) increased walking, with a morning and an evening walk for an average of 3-4 miles a day, 2) food: 1550 cal a day on average, 3) finishing all the eating for the day by 6 pm and sleeping better. And drinking more water.
