Two Months Behind, And A Life Ahead

Today marks two months of blogging and officially being on this journey to better health and a lower number on the scale, so I thought I would take a quick moment and look at my statistics. In the last sixty-one days I have lost over thirty-five pounds and - when considering the measurements for my bust, waist, hips, both arms, and both thighs - twenty inches from my frame. I would say that is a big accomplishment!

On top of those numbers, I have also gone from a size 24W to a 20W jean and discovered that my tops are now fitting longer due to them not having to hang over quite so many layers of fat. My body mass index has dropped from a high level two obesity reading down to level one. I even notice differences in the mirror which is huge considering I have always been my own worst critic. To top it all off I have figured out that I have dropped over thirteen percent of my body weight since beginning this blog. I am pleased!

Onto another topic I would like to profusely thank Irene from Livin’ Large for bestowing another Over The Top Blog Award unto me today. I received this accolade a little less than a week ago from a couple of fellow bloggers, so for now my answers will mostly remain the same. I will report differently on several of them though since those questions are based more on the situation which has changed since last Wednesday. Thanks again, Irene!
