I just realized that I missed my 6 month anniversary! It's been six and a half months of Fast 5. Here's to six and a half more months, at least!
I'm about 9 pounds away from my original goal weight of 150. Once I get there I may reevaluate and lower the goal to 140 or 145.
At my loss rate of 2 lbs/month, 9 lbs will take four and a half months. That means I should make my goal by the middle of March 2011. Wow, when I put it that way it seems like such a long slog...
My friend was doubtful about entering med school in his late 20's, knowing he wouldn't be fully trained until his mid 30's. A friend told him to go for it -- he's going to turn 35 anyhow, he might as well be a doctor at the time!
So I guess the same applies to weight. It'll be March in five months whether I gain weight or lose it. Might as well lose it!

Way to go!!!! That's awesome. My weight loss was slow but steady and has remained off. I weighed in this morning at 135.8 lbs. On Monday I weighed in at 138.2 lbs. I've been very consistent with my fasting this week and it has paid off. I was maintaining at 139 lbs for a long time and it feels good to be releasing more weight.
