One Year Ago..........

        One year ago I began working out and eating better after I had trouble keeping up during some of my Geology field trips.  I couldn't even use a normal scale, I had to buy one that could take more weight and it read a whopping 345lbs when I stepped on it.  I cut out the soda and fast food which I was consuming daily, especially at work.  I began riding a stationary bicycle 5 days a week and after a couple months added some weight lifting.  Today 52 weeks later the scale read 190lbs, that's 155lbs LOST!

        Now I'm such a geek that I had to keep detail records of the whole process.  I created an excel spreadsheet to track and graph the weight loss, it also tracked my BMI, weekly and monthly averages, and percent lost.  My BMI went from an initial 43.12 to 23.75 today, I lost 43.93% of my body weight, and lost an average of 2.98lbs a week which is a little too high I think, but that has leveled off to 1 to 2 pounds a week which is better.  I'll post the graph below....
