So when I first moved to Tennessee in August 2005, I weighed about 280+ pounds. I stopped weighing myself really at 270, but I'm sure I topped out close to 290. Now by august 2007, I was down to an even 275. This was around the time I moved out of my exs parents house. Since than I've been dropping weight pretty consisently. This last week alone I just dropped 2 or 4 pounds. As of yesterday on my last weigh in, I'm at 236.
Now for those of you who don't know me, or have seen pictures of me. I'm not a small guy, 200+ isn't fat for my height as I'm 6 foot 6 inches tall, and have an large bone frame.
Why am I dropping weight? I'm sure theres a variable of factors. I don't eat when I'm depressed, I buy all my own food. So in accordence I only eat when I'm hungry now. As oppossed to a schedule. I've begun to eat a lot healthier when I do. I've pretty much cut pop out of my diet, instead I drink milk, juice, or water. When I'm off work two days in a row, I make sure to get some form of exercise.
Though admitingly, theres periods where I barely eat at all now. Mostly when somethings bothering me. I'll admit I'm not losing weight entirely healthy, but on the other hand it's not entirely bad. Mostly I'm pleased with the new energy I have, though I am having to buy all new pants. Before I was in a size 42 waist, and now size 38 is baggy on me. I bought new belts one month, and the next I had to get even more because the new ones were to big.
I'm slowly buying all new clothes now. Which is good, because everything I had was getting old, didn't fit me right and didn't feel like clothes I really liked wearing. Let's just say I have a huge amount of sports clothes that were given to me. I hate sports, why do I wear their shirts?
I don't really have any good pictures of me anymore. Mostly because I never think to ask someone to take a picture of me. The most recent thing I have, is this picture I took of myself to show a friend my new clothes the other night.
AH! I'm upside down!
Holy crap I'm sideways! Has the world finally lost control of it's very gravitation pull and sense of all direction and dimension?! WHATEVERSHALLWEDO?!
Perhaps if I remember I'll have someone take better pictures of me.
