goal

Another busy day, work, followed by a trip to St Kitts with B's family for thanksgiving dinner. I ate too much delicious ham and some nice cauliflower and broccoli. It was a great visit as I haven't been there for a while.

I weighed in at the Y this am at 244 lbs, which makes a total of 50 lbs. Wow!  It really helped me to sort out what I want to set for my next goal. My next goal is to reach 200 lbs, which is another 44. A little bigger than my last two, but I think I'm up for it. I have realized that it is the minimum that I want to achieve. After that I will focus more on how I feel and how difficult it is to maintain.

I was quite surprised that I reached my goal today. On the weekend as I was dressing I happened to glance in the mirror and actually saw a little bit of the real me through the fat. There are now a few spots where I can actually see past it to the me I want to claim again... a good feeling!

Tomorrow is clinic day and I'm looking forward to it. I have most of the homework done and will keep working on it.

I'm grateful for the safety that the fat provided while I needed it, elly

  1. That's awesome Elly! I know you will reach your next goal. It's funny, but a number of your quotes lately come from authors I read regularly. Napolean Hill and Jim Rohn both have some great work you should check out if you get a chance.
    Love happy odd john
