I've Lost 60 lbs!

davidday Posts: 79 Joined: 2005/01/28	2005/05/02, 05:54 PM So, I hopped on this eating right and working out train back on January 31st -- and I'm glad I did! Sure, I've messed up a few days, but... As of today, I've lost 60 lbs -- from 330 to 270! Not bad for 13 weeks, right? I'm averaging a loss of around 4.5 lbs a week. Of course, at the beginning I was losing a lot very fast and it has slowed quite a bit. Nevertheless, I'm very happy and vow to continue the fight! Plus, it's very nice to notice muscles on my body! I was showering the other day and noticed some development in my chest and arms. Cool! Thanks for all your support! -------------- Dave ---------------------------------------- Eu procuro um amor que seja bom para mim...

As far as the concern of losing too fast - often when you are heavier, with more weight to lose, you will drop weight very rapidly. Just don't let yourself get discouraged if the weight loss slows down a little as you get leaner.
