This past week, I hit the 70Lbs lost mark.....quite a milestone for me, with 32 to go before i reassess my goals........but this week i started noticing more, and i think others did too......for instance
I saw my nephew this week, i had not seen him since before i started this journey on may 14th....his comment when i walked in..."uncle Dan you look amazing" warmed me to the core......my wifes grandma was shocked at my weight loss.....
I was in my truck and dropped something on the floor, normally it would take contortions to get it, or wait, because my stomach gets in the way....this week i did not think about i just reached down and grabbed it with no effort...it hit me then,,,,the belly is leaving......
here's and odd one....I had a hang over belly......and i wore tall shirts to compensate for it....and here's the odd part...when i would go pee, i would tuck the shirt under my fold to keep it out of the way, if the stream.....well this week there is no place to tuck the shirt........ that's when i realize i did not have the fold over belly.....
I was in Walmart, shopping......wearing a shirt i have not ever been able to wear cause its always been to small....i bent down to grab some six pack of water and as i curled them up.....i felt my bicep, stretch the shirt sleeve it was in......now it was an elastic shirt sleeve on a polo so it not an amazing feat, but i have not felt that in years.......
I am 70lbs lighter on my journey to be fit.....i work out 6 days a week like a dog, from 430 am i am going......I am winning my life back, and I just wanted to let people know how happy i am..........this site helps me, a lot it help me stay on track......
thanks for listening

I think that those moments that you first notice the things that you are able to do or the bumps and bulges that are gone or in your case are being noticed...like the arm sleeve...are the BEST NSVs EVER!!! Better than the numbers on the scale!! You are doing OUTSTANDING!!! Keep up the good work!!0
