long road ahead

So here I am nearing the ending of my 4th week since starting on this journey (though if you collectively count the real workouts etc. It has really been more like 3 weeks..I did have a lousy week when I was sick… Never the less, I weighed myself yesterday and came in 3 pounds lighter than when I started. I double checked a few times today and still the same. So I think its level and accurate.

It is a little disheartening I must admit. I kind of hoped/expected to lose more weight by now. I can see why people get disheartened. It must be even worse when one is eve more overweight than I!! But make no mistake..for my size, age and build…I am very overweight.

My current BMI is approximately 28..that’s just a few points shy of “Obese”! But aide from the labels…I just don’t feel healthy..my stomach gets in the way..and I dont feel cofident in myself like I used too. BUT , I have lost 3 pounds. So i should look in the bright side. 3 pounds in approximately 3 weeks brings me to 187. Not too shabby and probably healthy weight loss!!

Never the less…I need to step it up! Looking forward to an intense work out tomorrow and doing some “smart shopping” for essential groceries!
Wish me luck!
