That’s right, at long last I’m BELOW 200 pounds — for the first time in… geez, eight or nine years, I think!

So just to recap, here’s where I stand so far, weight-loss-wise:

  • In September 2017, when I started this blog, I weighed 240.2, so as of today I’ve OFFICIALLY lost 42 pounds (that’s FORTY-TWO, a very significant number!).
    nrol-42
  • But it gets even better, ’cause in September 2016, when I decided to start losing and went on the “No S” Diet, I weighed 262.2 pounds. So as of today I’ve lost 64 pounds (SIXTY-FOUR!!)!

So next time some yutz on the Internet tells you “calorie counting doesn’t work,” kindly refer them to this blog — and tell them they ain’t as smart as they thunk!

  3. Congratulations, Chrissy! You’ve worked hard, so treat yourself with a 5 mile hike and half a tuna sandwich 🥪! You’re really an inspiration (I’m down 12 pounds).

    • Good for you, Liz! You know, I make fun of WW sometimes, but really, if you stick to it, it can work. Pretty much *any* plan that results in a calorie deficit will. And it’s really helpful to have the accountability, too. Good luck to you!
