Yet Another Milestone!

Posted by: delitaagain In: Weigh-In!!

Well, I knew I had been distracted lately, but this is just plain silly!

I passed the 50 pounds lost mark, since starting again last August (when I started this blog) and didn’t even notice! It happened eight days ago.

Down 70 pounds since my top weight, but now a total of 51.2 pounds lost since starting back dieting August 10, 2008. WOOHOO!

That is an average weight loss of 1.5 pounds per week, much higher than hoped for. Next week will be the end of my eighth month at this!

Now I really want to get back in the swing of things, doing CrossFit consistently (a little more of a challenge is this setting, but no excuses) and eating right, or, right-er as necessary.

I’ve also fallen behind on your blogs, chickies, and so apologize. Very much hope to make the rounds soon!

How long have you been at this, this time around?

70lbs is a whole person’s worth! This is absolutely brilliant and congratulations on the 50lb milestone. You must have managed to get rid of some baggy old circus tents and be wearing some fabby new clothes. I count from when I had my lap band surgery: 22nd of August 2008
