March | 2020 | Can a 500 pound man?

I’m singing…. so I’m saying bye bye!

Good bye 500s (at least for a moment!)! I’ve finally oh GOD finally reached this weight loss milestone! For the first time in at least 4 years I weigh less than 500 pounds!

A biscuit away…

I’m back to being a biscuit away from five hundred pounds! I know if I had a glass of water and a biscuit I’m back at 500 but I’m just happy to see a four instead of a five or even a six on that first digit!

Rocky Road

Contrary to what you may think, this journey is not all smooth sailing ! Nope! It has been a rocky road ! (Yes I just mixed metaphors! ) I’ve lost 60 pounds in the last 6 months! Look at that graph of my progress. Notice how my weight loss hasn’t just been straight down! This journey so far had had its ups and downs and it will have plenty more as I lose another 240 pounds! I’m just blessed to have made it this far!

Love Yourself to see your best version of yourself

One of the things I’m learning on this journey is that you have to love yourself at this moment for who you are and what you are! Love the flaws. In order to change and progress and evolve you have to love and embrace the person you are today. You have to love that person enough that you want to give the a better life. You want to give that person a better version of themselves. You have to build a foundation of love for yourself and then and only then will you begin to have sustainable long lasting change!
