Re: 60 pounds later

Thank you again everyone for the nice words!
How long it did take me? Quite long. One year. But that's because I had months where my motivation was low and I was not dieting. And I had days where I was too lazy to exercise...I had plateaus, too. Ups and downs. Like a trip on a mountain's path. Because losing weight is not only mathematics. I want to lose x lbs untill y day. It's more like poetry. With days where you're a hero. with days where the monster within is stronger than you, with rainy days, with blossom days...

Re: 60 pounds later

Thank you all for the kind words.
I've finaly lost 60 pounds. And I hope to be able to do even more, because I'm still overweight. But I'm not obese anymore and I hope I'll never be obese ever in my life!
When I was very young, and sometimes I had to loose some weight, I never had a lot of weight to loose. So, because of that, the battle was easy, a few weeks on diet and I was slim again. But easy battles also means short victories... After getting to the right weight, I was falling down on eating and growing fat again...
This battle is terrible. It's hard. I'm fighting against my fat deposits since more than a year... It is so damn hard, that, when I will finaly get where I want, I'll apreciate it more and I won't let it go anymore! Because I'm not sure I will ever be capable to start the battle again.

Yes, is true, I feel so much happier! Yesterday, noticing the snow that almost melted entirely from my back yard, I've decided to wear a pear of summer pants and go for a walk in my garden. Surprize! The pants are giant! They've fallen down to my knees... And they were my favourites. So, no more pants! I tried to make tham hang on me with a belt. But even with a belt they look bad, cause the extra fabric stays in zig-zags... I was sad to have to give up my favourite pair of pants, but damn I was happy to realise how much I've lost since last summer!
