Reminder set. I will post here in 7 days.
size 22 to size 14 over about eighteen months. sizes are not consistent between shops so i only use the one shop
for the archive the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance
bloods, blood pressure and the stairs all moved before the scale did anything interesting
please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it
congratulations, genuinely. and thank you for putting the caveats in, most people do not bother
does the room want the numbers or just the story
i was the one who nearly quit at week three and now i am the one saying hold, which i find funny, take that with a pinch of salt
slightly off topic but went from stopping halfway up the stairs to carrying shopping up them without noticing, and that is the whole win
update on the earlier thing blood pressure went from 148 over 94 to 124 over 78 across about a year and my gp took me off one of the two tablets
good bp move
the milestone that mattered was fitting an aeroplane seat without the extender, and i was embarrassed by how much, i have it written down somewhere
the ring fitting again was worth more to me than any number on the scale ever was
ok so my milestone was tying my shoes sitting upright. it is not an endpoint in any trial
i overclaimed early on in here, got gently corrected, and i deserved it, not advice obviously
does anyone have a milestone they were embarrassed to admit mattered
a1c 6.9 to 5.4 over ten months. not diabetic on paper anymore and i still do not quite believe it, still working it out
