In January 2007, I weighed 420 lbs . In February 2009, I was down to 255 lbs and within 100 lbs of my goal weight. I couldn't get the scale to budge and gave up. By August 2015, I hit a personal high at 442 lbs. Now I'm on a renewed journey to health.

I peeked!

Down 5 lbs. I didn't plan on getting on the scale again until May 31, but I had a feeling I was down and I wanted to confirm it. I REALLY needed to see that. I must have just had a lot of water retention (from the salt) when I weighed in at 263 lbs a couple of days ago.

The trick is really logging food and keeping within the USDA recommendations. The empty calories just aren't worth it and make me feel like crap. Exercise really isn't a problem for me, especially right now when I can walk at the track. I just tell myself I'm out there to get a tan and walking is just a way to pass the time.
