GOAL!!!!!
Today I hit my goal weight!!!!
I have been logging and losing for 337 days
so almost exactly 11 months
I haven't missed a single day of tracking in that time

I have lost 168lbs
Which is 47% of my bodyweight.
I started at 357lbs
I weighed in today at 189.4lbs
I now live within OneDerland and am no longer considered medically obese.
My BMI was 51.2
My BMI is 27.2

I started this journey because of a diagnosis of diabetes.
My blood glucose level at diagnosis was 355 fasting
(70-100 is considered normal/healthy)
My A1C was 11
(4-5.4 is considered normal/healthy)
My Fasting blood glucose reading this week was 89
My A1C at last doctor's appointment was 4.8
I have been off my Metformin medication for diabetes for 5 months
