no longer obese (first time in adult life)

I broke though the 30 bmi barrier. I went on a hiking vacation and could not weight for 11 days. I hiked for 4-5 hours daily and had no problems with keeping my food intake to normal levels. I lost 9 pounds. (OMG) and went from 30.5 to 29.1 (approx.) I have never been that low. Wow! My wife doesnt think I have enough to lose to get to 25. That is 26 pounds away, so it is hard to tell. My goal has always been 179 (12 pounds to go) so i could be the "typical 180 pound man" they always talk about. It would also put me lighter than all my friends and my brother,not that i am in any way competitive or anything.

I'm not sure which I'm more impressed by: that you have lost that much weight, or that you hiked 4-5 hours a day! Great accomplishments both. Congratulations!

Congradulations!!!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Great job on the daily hikes (major accomplishment) and the weight loss!! Continue success of your journey.

And you did this in 2 months!! WOW Congrats!!

Congratulations!
