I started at 289.6 lbs. Yes that's a lot of weight. My starting BMI was 44, that's 4 points into the Morbidly Obese range. This is bad people.
That was 10 weeks ago. So where am I at today?
- Weight: Down 25.4 Lbs
- BMI: Down 3.8 points. Very close to no longer being morbidly obese
- Percentage of Weight Loss: 8.77%. I'm also very close to having lost a tenth of my entire body.
- Measurements:
- Hips - Down 4.25 inches
- Waist - Down 4 inches
- Bust - Down 2.25 Inches
- Thigh - Down 1.5 Inches Each
- Arms - Well, I was down, and then I started working them hard, and they are bigger again. They will shrink up eventually.
I was wondering why my hip measurement was not decreasing more. I should be losing the most there by a significant amount and I couldn't figure it out. Then when I fit into an old pair of pants the other day, it dawned on me. I noticed a baggy cavern in the rear of my old jeans. All the squats, hip and core exercises really do work, because my butt is literally a few inches higher and sticking out more in the back. So I have lost there, I've just also lifted there. I'm totally down with a lifted butt.
Here's the details in a poorly transferred excel spreadsheet:
Here's a much prettier chart, showing a couple of goals that I'm going to bust through sometime this month.
I will probably do an update with charts every four weeks. I love numbers, I love charts, and I think it's fun to see the achievement written in different ways. Wednesday is my normal Weigh in morning, so I will be making my significant weight loss posts then.
Sometimes it feels like this process will take forever, but then I look at charts and numbers like these and realize I have made significant progress in 10 weeks. I can't wait to see what a whole year brings to me!
