Hitting my first home home

Scale Victory and Non-Scale Victory
Today, I weighed in at 225 pounds. I'm 5 pounds away from no longer being "obese" which is a huge milestone fo me. I have lost now a total of 180 pounds in 15 months.
Yesterday, I was playing baseball with my Cub Scouts (I'm a den leader), some neighborhood kids ages 8-14, my two sons, and another adult. For the first time in my life, I hit a home run! I crushed the ball to left field and ran the bases for an inside the park home run. I know it was just with some kids but hitting my first home in my life at age 38 is a huge accomplishment for me. It also felt good to also have my boys there see me do it.

My season starts Sunday. I am so stoked to get out there! I would be happy with a triple. I've dropped about 20 pounds since last season and there were a couple times I should have had a triple but I just couldn't make it that far. Hoping this year is different!
Congrats!0 -
