Week 17 and still going
Week seventeen this morning, and down 2.2 pounds from last Tuesday to 219.8!
Yay! I've noticed for the last two weeks that my knees and feet don't hurt anymore. Of course, I've lightened up a bit on yard work because of the cool and wind, but still it's a joy to not hurt all the time. My MIL asked if I thought the loss of weight helped with the arthritis pain and I told her I think it does. My next mini-milestone is to get to less than 20 pounds to goal. Maybe next week! -- Dewolla Stepon 268/219.8/199 154 at age 28 280 at age 53 |

WTG Dewolla!
Your MIL might be interested in this article. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/n...ory_17577.html I don't have arthritis in my knees but my mother suffered with it for years. She always said the knees felt much better after she lost a few pounds. My arthritis is in the neck and shoulder area. I think it's a result of spending years at a computer terminal. Exercise seems to help mine. Beverly "Dewolla Stepon" wrote in message news:CO4oc.71030$kh4.4137529@attbi_s52... Week seventeen this morning, and down 2.2 pounds from last Tuesday to 219.8! Yay!

Sounds like you are doing great, Dewolla. What kind of diet are you on.
I just want to point out that you have actually just passed a MAJOR mileston - one that I am looking forward to myself sometime. 219.8 lb is 99.9 kg. That means you have passed under 100 kg and are now into two digits!

Congratulations on your continued progress, Dewolla! I believe that weight loss significantly helped my joints. If not, the improved mobility and reduction in pain as I lost weight were quite a coincidence :-). Chris 262/152/ (145-150) |

Well, for that matter Dewolla, you've gone from being in the 19
stones to the 15 stones, which is a major achievement! janice On Wed, 12 May 2004 10:28:55 +0900, Doug Lerner wrote: Sounds like you are doing great, Dewolla. What kind of diet are you on.
