I'm in, too!

Today:
wt. 183
Chest: 40"
waist: 35"
hips: 46"

I started discarding my excess weight on December 29th, when I weighed 206. I lost 15 lbs really quickly and then I plateaued all summer, while riding my bike. In July I went to be hypnotized to change my mind, and that has happened. My weight has gone down slowly, but I am much more fit than I was, and more importantly, my motivation is there.

Right now I'm doing a fitness boot camp and I only have 11 classes left--then it's not meeting for December, and I don't know if I'll be able to afford it again in January. I'm trying to work dog walks into my off days--but the problems I may be having with my iron stand in the way of that--I just get so tired. Though today I did have a chocolate milk to recover after my class, and I didn't need a nap today--so maybe it's something about glycogen stores being depleted.

I also use CalorieKing and tracking is the only way I know how to be sure of what I'm eating. You can use fitday and sparkpeople both for free, but I like not needing an internet connection to log. AND, CK has the most food in its database, hands down.

We're going on a cruise with the Barenaked Ladies in January, and I want to have to buy all new clothes!

Here's to us! ("Who's like us?" "Very few..." "And they're all DEAD!" pirate joke)
