I stepped onto the scale this morning and am officially out of the 500s. I weighed in at 499.
As it stands right now I am 25 pounds away from my first mini goal of 474. I can feel it coming and am feeling more inspired than ever to keep exercising and make that goal weight my new reality.
I often feel as if I have stepped into a time machine when I think about this way of life and the good ways in which it has changed me. I think I do this because I remember certain times in my life when I weighed a specific amount (like many of you, I'm sure). As I see myself nearing some of these goals, I honestly can feel like I am traveling back in time.
When I started this way of life, I was 574 pounds. This will always be a magical number for me. It will be the number by which I measure how far back I have gone. Moreover, it will be the number that brings me fear from now on, because it will remind me of how unhealthy and afraid I was at that time.
When I passed 525, I officially began feeling this whole time machine sensation. I remember weighing 525 in January of 2004. Over one year of unhealthy eating gone. Erased. Snuffed out.
My next big goal is 450. When I reach 450 pounds, I will turned back time to April of 2001, when I got married.
When I hit 350 I will be back at my senior year in High School, and 325 will see me in 10th grade. By the time I weigh 250 pounds I will be in Junior High and when I am at my long term goal of 200 pounds, I will weigh the same as when I entered fifth grade.
Change is coming. We are all turning back the clock as we take off this excess baggage, and I am thankful that I get to make my journey back in time with the lot of you.
