Hunger

My dieting continues to be successful.  It was a thrill to lower the first digit of my weight (in base ten) from 2 to 1.

In order to sustain my weight loss I've had to be hungrier than I am used to.  No lunches anymore.  I've gotten off of my injections for my Type II diabetes and will slowly wean myself from the medication in pill form.

Ah, but the hunger. :(

Losing Weight

I've been overweight for half my life.  I exercise very regularly, so the problem has been my diet.  This past six weeks I've been eating less and less, and I've got my weight down to a three-year low.  I've still got a long ways to go.  I've met some of the easier goals, in terms of being able to get around more easily, to get up and down from the floor more easily.  My next goal in progress is weaning myself off of injected medication, and then oral diabetes medication.  The next goal would be to improve my jogging to where I feel that my speed is greater than walking.  Ultimately of course I want to be happy with what I see in the mirror.

I am so hungry.

Losing Weight

I've actually started losing weight by hardly eating in addition to exercising.  I don't know how long I can maintain it but I have more hope for getting to a healthier weight than I've had for a while, and I'm not sure what's behind it.
