Success!
This picture shows me that it is important to start gaining muscle. I am going to sign up with the new gym in the next week or two. I may have to drive a little further to a gym that is already open as I wait for them to get the one closer to me finished. Looking at the picture of fat versus muscle shows me I need to work on building muscle.
My Weekly Weight Loss Details
When I started losing weight 7 months ago I was in a size 14. Today I went to Kohl's and bought size 6 jeans. They feel so small!
I got the new skinny jeans. I don't know, if your pushing 59 it is appropriate to wear skinny jeans or not. I actually like them so I think I will be wearing skinny jeans this year.
I think I could probably wear a large top. With the size of my chest it's hard to get a smaller size top. I did go buy some new bras last week. My others were getting a little too big and stretched out of shape.
I had my doctor's appointment last week. It was 6 months ago when I went in the last time. When my doctor walked in the room he said, "Well, I see you have lost weight!" He looked at my chart and said, "You've lost lots of weight!" That was fun!
My blood pressure was 100/74. The doctor told me to quit taking one of my blood pressure meds. Yeah!!! Success!! He thought my cholesterol was still too high to quit taking my cholesterol medicine. I have thought about just stopping it anyway. I don't like the idea of taking statins. My sugar was 99. Other than my cholesterol everything was great. Very close to a healthy BMI.
The doctor says now is the time that I have to really be careful. He is worried I will turn around and gain it back. I don't think so, mister!! I have this handled!
Surprise
Before I left for the doctor I got on my scale with my clothes on and weighed to see what I weighed on my scale. It said 149.5. I went to the doctor and weighed. I weighed 151.2. I thought my scale was 3 pounds light. It is really only a little less than 2 pounds light. So I actually weigh about 1 pound less than I thought. When I was heavier the scale was 3 pounds light. My son told me that it was different at lesser weights. He was right.
I weighed 151.2. The top of my healthy BMI is 149.5. Below is my weight as of today!
