Century mark!

I hit it today! I've lost 100 pounds in exactly seven months.

I will post a separate thread over the weekend on my plans for losing
the next 50 pounds. I'm recovering from wrist surgery and am only
supposed to use the computer for 45 minutes at a time. I'm typing with
one hand.

In the meantime, join me in doing the happy nekkid century dance!

As always, YM (and dance) MV.

What was your basic diet program?

Please give the details on how you did this with
diet and how much exercise and what kind?

I am doing this under the supervision of my primary care physician, a
nutritionist and a psychotherapist. I suspect that people get annoyed
when I post repeatedly that one needs to consult medical professionals
before and during a major change in WOE, but this is all about health.
Like many middle-aged people, I have myriad health problems, not all
caused or aggravated by my weight.

My program, selected and directed by the nutritionist, is 1,500
calories a day. I use fitday.com obsessively, and can document
everything I've eaten since Oct. 13.

The 1,500 figure is an average. With the occasional social event at
which I eat more, I have no more than 2,000, and reduce calories the
rest of the week by 200 or so a day.

Exercise has been difficult. In the beginning, I couldn't walk much
because my arthritis was aggravated by my being supermorbidly obese.
Once I lost about 10 percent of my total weight, I became more
ambulatory. I started (and still do) parking at the far end of lots
when I drove. I took short walks around my neighborhood.

Once I got below 300 pounds, I started taking the stairs instead of
the elevator when it was safe. (I live in a decaying mid-Atlantic
metropolis, and using public stairwells is not always prudent.) I took
longer walks around my neighborhood. I began walking around a
reservoir that has foot and bike paths. It's 1.125 miles around.

I'm now walking twice around the lake most days, although very slowly.
Despite my weight loss, arthritis in my hips and knees make it
difficult to walk faster.

As always, YMMV.

Kasey, this comment made me wonder what age you are? I'm in my late
50s and although I suppose I count as middle aged I certainly don't
expect health problems as a result of my age, and am lucky to have
virtually none.
I do wonder if you might find as you continue to lose that more of the
health issues than you think might turn out to be be to do with your
weight after all, and that you're in for a pleasant surprise.
I agree with you 100% about the YMMV, and I admit I know nothing about
your health issues so am probably quite wrong here, but I found myself
reading this sentence in your post several times and wondering about
it.
You're making great progress with the weight loss - keep it up.

The risk for much disease increases with age.

I hope your statement doesn't mean you aren't getting regular
mammograms, colonoscopies, EKGs and tests for glaucoma because you
"don't expect health problems as a result of my age."

I do wonder if you might find as you continue to lose that more of
the
health issues than you think might turn out to be be to do with your
weight after all,

I am unaware of any scientific data linking hepatitis C or glaucoma
to obesity.

As always, YMMV.
