Been a little while. Hi everyone.
Two years ago I decided that I had gotten too fat, by influence of a close friend, and decided to do something about it. With the help of Morgan, I went on a crash diet and began eating carefully controlled food. Generally I'd have a soup for lunch, and then a standard meal for dinner (2 small slices of sous vide-cooked chicken, quinoa, and a serving of steamed vegetables). I'd take a short 20 minute walk after dinner and that ended up working okay, I managed to go from 240 at my peak to 193 at the very minimum.
Before he got hired and our dinner dates ended. I was not quite able to control my portions and had no interest in exercising and giving up the favored portion of my evenings after work. Over a number of months I wandered my way back up to 210. Note that my healthy weight is 125 for a guy of my height. This is a bit of a problem.
Morgan meanwhile managed to lose over 80 pounds (and is now down to 130-140) and has maintained that. For those of you at FC last year and at chicken a few times, you may have seen him wandering around in some adorable dresses and skirts and generally being super adorably shy.
In November, for my birthday, I decided that I would make the same effort, starting with exercise and then working my diet to reach my goal weight. My hope was to, by FC 2018, once again be able to fit into the clothing I love to wear; pretty dresses, fishnet and the like. I'm happy to say that as of this point I'm at 183, and following the weight tracking (from weighing myself every day since November) just continuing where I am I would land at 160 (or a net -40) for the year. Though wonderful, I felt I could do better, and decided this week in addition to the 2-3 miles of running, I would make a permanent change and restrict my diet as I was doing before.
My goal is to reach 140 in time for FC, and I'm hopeful I can do that. For reference, that would just about double my current loss as the tracker shows the current prediction of 20 for the year without any other changes. As a part of this, those who know me from Tapestries would recognize my character has changed again. It is something I do in the process of acknowledgement of where I am in my life. The kangaroo rat was an acknowledgement that to truly manage my weight, I needed to exercise a healthy amount, and he has served as that motivation for a year. Now, a new look, based on current interest and as a goal to reach IRL. The first time I can say I've made a form I plan to actually reach.
