I've been hovering around 189-190 for some time now. But I have increased my workout [weight lifting and aerobics], started doing some strength training instead of just lots of reps, and have gained a lot of muscle mass - esp upper body. I am also down to about a 35 inch waist. I went through most of one belt and almost all of another one now. Only one notch left to go on this one.
At 190 I have lost a little over 50 lbs. A 50 Lbs loss was my original goal, but now the goal post has moved and a 32 inch waist is the target. Still guessing what my weight will be when I hit 32 inches.
I am starting to feel a bit on the buff side again for the first time since I was in my twenties! Yay! It feels so good to feel good again.
Oh yes, this was cool. I got the most intense case of runner's high that I've ever experienced, the other day. It was so intense that at first I didn't even know what it was. I had increased my weight-lifting routine [more weight!]. Wow! It was just like getting a shot of morphine.
