Imagine the Snoopy Happy Dance

Yes, yes, I know. But, I have a great excuse. See the numbers? Do you see? I’m not sitting in front of my computer as much now. I’m out and about, finding GeoCaches and walking about.

So much so that, and ya’ll will be so proud (cause I am of myself) that I’ve lost more weight. That’s right, more weight loss.

Let me break it down.

I started at the company I am with on the 19th of June. At that time, I weighed in at a staggering 304 pounds. WAY too much and, with what my doctor has been telling me all this time, not a good thing for my health at all. You know, diabetes is a strong possibility when you are overweight.

So, on the 7th of July, I started a diet. Low carb and smaller portions were the ticket for me. And it worked! On the 1st of August when I saw my doctor again, I had lost 10 pounds.

Then, over Labor Day weekend, I made a conscious effort to curtail my diet coke habit. I mean, I was drinking the equivalent of 4 to 6 two liters a day! So, I was able to quit the diet coke and now I’m drinking water in mass quantities.

Couple all of that with the fact that I am not sitting in front of my computer as much and I am out and about walking around to the tune of about 1.5 miles per day and then step on the scale this weekend and…

278 pounds!

I am wearing clothes that I couldn’t wear 4 months ago. You can definitely see it in my face.

But, I’ve still got a long way to go. I want to lose at least another 50 pounds and get to my goal weight of 225 pounds.

Till Next Time,
Blessings!
