    23 October 2014 was the day i realized that my health was at risk. That i was out of shape, more than i ever could dream of and wanted.

    I promised myself i am going to lose this excess weight. And i did...still a couple more pounds to go.

    But lost 112 pounds went from 261.2 lbs to 149.2 lbs
    I am happier, healthier and fitter.

    And without any problems. I did simple CICO. I eat what i want except added salt and i am/was careful with added sugar.
    The sugar is stabilized so eat that normally again. Salt is something i will forever be careful with this because of medical reasons.
    But eat it all a balanced diet, what i want or like at the moment.
    Only the weighing, counting and portion control is the number one rule.

    I walk/jog and swim but average is 6 days a week 300 exercise calories a day. Doesn't matter what i do, as long as i at least those 300 calories a day :)

    For me it wasn't difficult, but it was dedication and consistency.
    Keep doing what i was doing even when i didn't lose anything for a week or longer....
    I kept in mind that as long as i weigh every single bite in grams and keep my calorie allowance it will come off. And it did.

    Some more pounds to go but i am in the healthy range. So even when it takes another year ( i slowed it down a lot and eat at a very small deficit atm) i dont mind. The goal was feeling healthier and fitter and not a number on the scale. Yes i picked one because you have to. But the way i feel ( now ) is more important.
