Progress Check, January 2023

This is the 12th week since I've been tracking my progress. I'm averaging a weight loss of 2.4 lbs a week, vs. my previous two dramatic weight loss sessions where I considered anything less than 5-10 lbs a week to be an abject failure.

I'd been making lifestyle changes for a bit prior to my 'official' start, and I'm pretty confident that I'd dropped a considerable amount. I just wanted to make sure that I was truly back in a groove before sharing anything with even the wife and kids, as I've had more than a few false starts over the past couple of years.

My original goal when I set my mind to start on this current journey was 1-2 lbs per week. I'm very happy that I've managed to be consistent enough to exceed that a bit, in spite of the holidays, birthdays, and the other dietary landmines I've had to navigate these past 3 months. It sets me up nicely to look back a year from my start date and see how far I'll have come.

Until then, though, it's one meal, one workout, one healthy decision at a time.

Day 3

It was an easy choice to pick up the exact same routine as last year. It was effective; the failing was me not sticking to it. Same schedule...
