Five months ago, I decided to join weight watchers to lose a little weight. Yesterday morning, at 8:17AM, I weighed in below my target weight... less than I've weighed in more than 20 years! Five months, 62 pounds... both dropped by the wayside!
I've got a before picture on-line, and I'll get an after picture shortly. It's been a helluva ride, and along the way, I've gone from XXL shirts to Medium, from 40 waist pants to 34 (or perhaps less), and possibly even dropped shoe sizes slightly
My wife has never seen me weighing this little, and the entire family now outweighs me (instead of the other way 'round
).
I'm completely off all medications I was on for blood pressure, triglycerides, and other stuff, and have at least slowed down, if not stopped, the advent toward diabetes. Since both my parents have type-2, my chances of developing it are 95%... but not any more
Now for six weeks of maintenance to be sure I can continue to do it, and then weight watchers for free... for the rest of my life
Anyway, I felt the need to share... now, time to get finishing my book. 'Night, all!
