Is losing weight (maintaining) one of your top priorities in life? Why/why not?
Losing weight, as a byproduct of being healthy, is a top priority in my life at this point. That and finding a job. Since being unemployed sucks. Which I’ve been all of one day, so I guess I don’t have much room to speak.
Back to the point! Yes, it is. I mean, I don’t live and die by the scale, but for the time being, the scale does have a place. There’s no getting around the fact that I’m heavy. Really heavy. I was 7, count them, 7 pounds away from being morbidly obese at my heaviest. Well, I could have been those seven pounds up, I just didn’t get on a scale back then. So, to get healthier is automatically going to translate, even if slowly, into a downward trend on the scale. My goal is to get into a healthy weight range for my height, which shows in many different graphs as anywhere from 111-147 pounds. So clearly, I have a wide scale that I can utilize to my advantage. I want to be squarely in that scale and nowhere near the bottom number. So here’s to making that actually happen!
