fiddle-on Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 I just weighed myself on my shiny new bathroom scale this morning, and it said 159 lbs! It's been about 2 years since I was last at this weight. I've been working out consistently since February, but had been ignoring my diet until I weighed myself at the end of June, and weighed 171. That's almost obese, so I decided to get my weight back under control and started recording all my food in MyFitnessPal. What makes it extra exciting is that for the second half of June, I've been too sick/hurt to work out significantly, so I was able to eat less despite being much less active than usual. Though the one week where I was sickest and barely ate at all is definitely what pushed it over the 2 lbs a week mark. Next up: below 150, when I will no longer have an overweight BMI. I'm hoping to reach that by mid September or early October. 4 Quote Karen Otherwise know as Fiddle Current Challenge https://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/108280-fiddle-eats-less-and-fiddles *********************** Past Challenges: Jan 2016, Feb 2016, March 2016, April 2016, May 2016, June/July2016, July/August 2016, Sept/Oct 2016, Nov 2016, May 2017 *********************** Link to comment

I don't even know you, and I'm so indescribably happy for you. You had a great excuse to just not care and you pushed through anyway and you're making it happen for yourself. Rock on. Consider me inspired! I hope you're truly, deeply proud of yourself. You're earning it. 1 Quote Link to comment
fiddle-on Posted August 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 Thanks! I'm really happy that I chose to eat well, because I've made the opposite choice so, so many times.
