The scale doesn't control you. You control yourself. It's ALL in the decisions you make and the direction you take.

10% GOAL REACHED!

Saturday, July 05, 2014

My first major goal was to lose 10% of my beginning weight of 291 pounds. I reached that goal this morning!!!

10% of 291 = 29.1 pounds
291 - 29 = 262!

This morning my scale was a solid 262!

WOO HOO! I am re-energized! emoticon emoticon emoticon

Now, for the NEXT 10% Goal:

10% of 262 = 26.2 or 236 pounds. emoticon
I've also dropped my BMI from a DANGEROUSLY High 51.5 down to a still-high, but less deadly,  46.4.  That's 5 points. Doesn't sound like much -- but it's important to keep lowering that number. 

ClassificationBMI
Underweight <19
Ideal BMI19-25
Overweight25-30
Obese>30
Severely Obese>35
Morbidly Obese>40
Super Obese>50
 
Yes... at 5' 3", I was considered Super Obese. Now, it's Morbid Obesity.  I am on my way to 39 -- which will take me OUT of the Morbid range and into Severely Obese. 
Do I like those terms? No, I don't.  However, it is what it is and only I can change that. 
I CAN. I WILL.
