Update....

As of this morning I've lost 67 pounds. Don't think I'll hit my goal of -75 by my Dr.'s appointment on August 4, but I'll be close. Updated pictures will be taken and posted at the 75 pound mark. I'm 37.6% of the way to my total goal of losing 178 pounds.

My clothes are falling off of me! I'm going at lunch to try and buy a few belts to make my pants last as long as possible. I love that feeling! I'm so used to my pants being tight and digging into my waist - this is a welcome change.

I've been walking 2-2.5 miles at least 5 days a week. I usually am not one to exercise, but I have to admit I actually look forward to my daily walk. I've pretty much given up on getting up early to walk and have been going at night. (I might like my walks, but I like my sleep more!) It's a good wind down at the end of the day.

Kevin is down to 257 pounds. He has lost 58 pounds from his highest weight of 315 a few years ago. He thinks he weighed about 285 when I had my surgery, so he's lost about 28 pounds since April. He is looking good - we'll have to post some pictures of him too. He wants to lose 27 more pounds to get back to his Army weight of 230.

New blog features - I've posted weight loss tickers for me and Kevin at the bottom of my blog. So, even if I don't write a post, I'll keep that updated if you want to know our current weight loss totals.

Thanks for all of your continued support!

I can't wait to see the photos. Walking is the best exercise and like you, I look forward to that time. Keep up the outstanding work and Kudos to Kevin too. We will be beating the pants off all those other folks at the Indy-Mini.

Love ya
