I am hesitant to say it out loud. I haven't made a big deal about it and probably won't for lots of reasons.
I don't actually know my heaviest weight ever because I quit letting the doctor's office weigh me out of shame at my huge-ness.
I'm really proud & really not proud (YES, BOTH) of losing 100 pounds- geesh, that's approaching what a small, fit adult weighs.
It's great that I've lost that weight, but it's awful that I ever weighed that much to start with.
To go around telling people "I've lost 100 pounds" would 1) be looking for pats on the back, and I am NOT doing this for anyone but me and 2) would be telling the rest of the world, "Look at what a fat cow I was, now I'm just a less fat cow." Yeah, I'm not into that.
But, here it is anyway- in spite of myself. I have been holding right around the 100 pounds from my heaviest recorded weight mark for about a week or so now. It's hard to believe. It was more work than anyone knows.
I can't believe I'm going to say this either but 100 more and I'll be just about, almost to a good weight for me. I can't imagine how that will feel or look. It's scary but exciting.
