Today I achieved a milestone |
|
I bought a pair of jeans with an inseam greater than the waist measurement - 36 waist, 38 inseam.
OK maybe that doesn't sound like such a BFD but it's the first time I could say that in probably 30 years. In late August I was wearing 42's. I've dropped 38 lbs since then from 251 to 213.
I only post this because after I told my wife she said, "Now that you've told me are you going to tell somebody that gives a shit?"

I within the last year went from waist size 36 from 42. I however doubt my waist will ever be less than my inseam again. My inseam should be 28

We have the exact same diet, neither of us drinks more than 2 glasses of wine a day,but I do an hour on a stationary bike thingy every morning. While she's still zonked out I might add.
She does walk a couple of miles 4 or 5 times a week with the neighbor lady but I think it's harder for women to lose weight anyway. We"re both 68, and I was flat ORDERED by the doctor to lose weight (and lower my blood pressure) and frankly it scared the shit out of me.
I gained a lot of weight after I tore my achilles tendon in 2006 and had to sit on my ass for 8 months.
