Weight Update #2

Posted by on January 21, 2010 at 9:40 am.

Ok, back with my second weight update. Just before new years I weighed in at 239 pounds, which is by far the heaviest I’ve ever weighed in my life. I said I was going to continuously post my weight here to help keep myself accountable and motivated.

In my last update on January 7th, I weighed in at 234.2 pounds which was almost 5 pounds down from my starting weight.

This morning at the gym I weighed in at 227.2 which is another 7 pounds down.

So that means that I’ve lost nearly 12 pounds since I began, and I already FEEL it.

What’s shocked me is how easy its been. I haven’t done anything drastic at all. I cut out Ice Cream (that’s the hardest part.. but I treat myself to a shake maybe once a week), I eat fruit for breakfast and I count my calories (I try to stay at about 1500/day). That, and I try to hit the gym a few times a week.

Ok, sticking with it… so far so good.

    Congrats John. Counting calories actually worked for me as well. I literally wrote down everything I ate for 3 months straight. I eat totally different now, thinking about everything that goes in my mouth instead of just *eating* You sound really happy with the change so definitely stick with it!!
