Well, this morning was the 90th morning that I’ve weighed myself, and for those of you that have been keeping up and reading, you’ll know I fell a little short of my goal of hitting 50 pounds lost by this morning. I was doing everything I could this weekend to be on my best “drinking” behavior and even with “boys night”, catching up with friends I haven’t seen in a while and even a little unexpected bar crawling in Dupont, I did pretty damn well… all water, all the time. I didn’t have a single drink all weekend! Unfortunately, with hurting my foot early Saturday afternoon while running, I wasn’t able to workout as much and thus didn’t hit the mark that was aiming for.
However, in 90 days I’ve lost 45.9 pounds, that is most certainly a win!! I’ve lost 14.9% of my original body weight and I’ve dropped my 1 mile running time from 18 minutes to just over 12, which isn’t that bad for a fat guy still lugging around 262 pounds!! Here is a quick little chart of what’s changed:
Original | Now | Change | |
Weight | 308 | 262.1 | 45.9 pounds / 14.9% of my original body weight |
Pant Size | 46 | 40 | Approximately 6 inches lost from my waist |
Dress Shirt Size (neck) | 19.5 | 17 | Approximately 1.5 inches lost from my neck. |
1 Mile Running Time | 19 minutes | 12.3 minutes | 6.7 minutes faster 1 mile time. / 35% Faster |
And just to keep them frozen in time, here are the charts for my weight-loss, and my actual weight:
Now from here… I just keep working, keep eating right, keep working out and slowly but surely… I’ll be reaching my first goal of losing 60 pounds. Wish me luck!!
