A co-worker commented on my weight loss today. She said I was “wasting away”. I know she didn’t mean it in a negative way – especially since she followed it up with a resounding “you look great”.

I think many of my co-workers may have been afraid to mention the weight loss earlier due to a spate of cancer diagnosis we’ve had in the office over the past year. I think I’m the first person who’s had a large amount of weight loss (47 lbs and counting) who hasn’t been terminally ill in this office in a long time.

I still have over 40lbs to lose and at the rate I’m going I expect I’ll manage to get rid of 25lbs of it before Christmas.

A 25 lbs loss will place? me at the absolute top of the “healthy” weight range for my age and height. I’d? like to end up in the middle of the range so that’s my end goal?,? ?t?h?u?s? ?t?h?e? ?e?x?t?r?a? ?1?5??-?2????????????? ?l?b?s.?????
