I’ve lost about 37 pounds since roughly March of 2012. If you believe that the BMI charts are set in stone, then I have another 36 pounds to go before I’m in the healthy range. However, I have about 7 pounds to go before I can shake the “obese” label.
According to the BMI chart and mathematics, I should weigh no more than 161 pounds. As much as I hope to some day actually hit 160 again, my long term goal is to stay at or below 170 pounds. If I can enjoy life in the 150-160 range then that would also be very awesome. 170 is my ceiling.
The thing is, I’ve started making goals:
- Keep losing weight until my left breast and right breast have shrunken equally.
- Learn to moonwalk.
- Lift more weights.
- Go swimming without a T-shirt on.
- Lift more weights.
- Reach the end of Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey while playing it my exercise bike.
- Let my friends see my tattoos.
- Get more pictures taken to totally spruce up my Facebook/Twitter/Tumblr/LinkedIn/Livejournal profiles.
- Dance in front of my friends. I don’t drink any more, so this is kind of a big goal.
I’m staying a lot more active and eating a LOT of vegetables. My favorite technique is to cover them in locally made salsa. This stuff is low sodium, made of more vegetables, and tastes amazing. I get the stuff with habanero peppers. The thing is, I love vegetables naturally. I love them as close to raw as they can be eaten. So, I’m capitalizing on this good dietary instinct that’s already within me.
I really don’t like fruit but am eating about two servings a day anyway.
I’m very lucky and happy to be this deep into a new “me.” I want that to be the best and most authentic “me” that it can be. I want to moonwalk with my tattoos showing.
