In spite of three restaurant trips this weekend, I am officially down 20 lbs. today! It is hard to say "No" when one is trying to see family, friends, and colleagues at a restaurant periodically. On 1 January I was 255 lbs. Today Today I am 235 lbs. I wore a pair of pants to work today I haven't worn before-- I bought it some months ago thinking I would soon fit in them. It wasn't soon, but now they are comfortable. A very nice feeling.
The weight came off pretty fast for the first three weeks, but slowed down the last week, regardless of exercise and diet. I suspect I'll have to work harder for slower success from here on out, but I do still expect success. A very good first month, considering I have work, grad school, a house to fix up, and other responsibilities. My hat is off to parents trying to lose weight, who have the huge additional responsibility of caring for children while trying to do something so energy- and time-consuming.
