We went to the fair and I was weighed on the "guess your weight" game. Last year in July I did it and I weighed in at 475lbs, and the time between then until I started this journey in March of this year (8 months) I know I gained a lot more weight. I know I weighed over 500 lbs, but don't know the exact number, so we'll say I weighed 500 for weight loss sake.
On to this year the guy at the booth walked around me a few times and he guessed 145lbs, I said this leg? He laughed and then guessed 444lbs, now I know this is a fair game and I do not know how accurate these things are but the one I was weighed at 1 year ago was the exact same booth, and I one last year (he guessed 485lbs, I weighed 475lbs) This year the guy was right on the money I was teetering between 443-445!!! So being generous and using the 500lbs mark I have lost 55ish lbs in 116 days!!!
Here are some new pictures from last night with the day 1 and 15 side by sides again...
Day 1 and Day 116:
Day 15 and day 116 side view:
I still have not made it to the gym, but I was watching my older brother's house and pets for him last week so my plan to come home swim and then work out didn't go so well. I am going to pack my bag in the morning with swim trunks, goggles, towel, and workout clothes and keep it in my car so I can use after work (obviously clean workout clothes and dry towel/trunks each day :P ) And if anyone wants to join me for a swim or workout session at around 8:15ish on Tues, Wed, Fri, let me know (Monday I will most likely go around 1:30ish, Thursday is my day to hang out with Fatty, Saturday is usually family day and we usually swim or do something energetic, and Sunday is my day to relax and spend time with my Dad usually, pretty much my free day) Thanks again for the support, it is surprising to see how many people are supportive and all for someone getting healthier!
