An interesting realization

Tonight (while sitting in the hot tub at the gym), I realized
something interesting. While I started this new WOE at 262 lbs., I
was somewhat heavier a few years before that, after injuring my knee
and before getting involved in exercise. The highest weight at which
I weighed myself -- about 6 years ago -- was 275. At 137.5 when I
weighed myself today at the gym, I'm exactly half of that all-time
high :-).

Wow! That's weird and startling.

It was a nice thought. But it really does seem sort of incredible (in
the true sense of the word -- hard for me to believe that I was ever
that large, and hard for me to really internalize that I'm this
small).

Very cool, Chris. My half of the queen size bed is *much* roomier now.

Yeah, I guess :-). I don't know if "proud" is exactly the right word,
but I do feel a sense of accomplishment. It always feels good when
you try to do something and succeed.
