65% towards first goal (44 days since surgery)
So I decided I need more immediate gratification on this weight loss journey and set several small goals for myself based on lowering my BMI rather than looking at sizes or weight. My first goal is to reduce from Morbid Obesity Class 3 to Class 2. For my height this corresponds to a maximum weight of 260. I wasn't sure about the time limit, so I sort of arbitrarily choose Thanksgiving.
I hadn't been losing any weight for a few weeks and was frustrated. I quit weighing. I knew I wasn't gaining, but I was sick of seeing the same number over and over. Well, yesterday I hopped back on the scale and it had decreased almost 12 pounds!
So now my total pounds down from my highest weight is 33 pounds, and I'm about 65% towards my goal for Thanksgiving. I haven't had my first fill yet, either. It is scheduled for October 21, right after I get back from my very first Cruise!
I'm feeling pretty good today :smile:
