21 August 2011

What a difference two years makes!
It is definitely time for a quick reflection.

I started this whole thing on 21 Aug 2011. I was over 272 pounds [124kg]. I was lethargic, unmotivated and if I really admit it to myself, not very happy. I didn't realise how immobile I was because it isn't until you lose the weight that you see what you can't or wouldn't do.

In the last 24 months, not only have I lost over 54 pounds, I have:
 - run countless miles including multiple 5ks, and a 10k
 - tried lots of new and different fitness classes and sports
 - can fit into normal clothes
 - am comfortable in airline seats and theatre seats
 - have been meeting new guys and dating

The most important thing is that I have had the help of friends and family and even strangers (through this blog). This is a GREAT anniversary!

Thinner, stylish and having a crazy, fun time with my friends. (Cheeky possum Linda and Geoff)
