32% OF WEIGHT LOSS GOAL ACHIEVED: How I've moved from 361 to 329

I'm shocked to even write it--but also just plain thrilled.

I'm working from home which has allowed better food choices and regular (tRX)exercises. I'm branching out to other exercising regimes shortly, too. Normally, I've achieved weight loss in the past through brute force (exercise) rather than tracking and limiting what I put in my body. This time is different. As importantly, it feels different too.

For the past 57 days I have tracked every calorie in my fitness pal (OK, every calorie I recorded; I don't think any human has ever perfectly recorded a few months of calorie consumption). I have made the effort to get a minimum of 20 minutes of exercise every day -- and push hard to ensure I get it done early (AM) rather than later in the day.

Basically, I'm losing about 10 pounds per month. In another two months or so, I hope to report I'm 50% through with my 100 pound weight loss goal.

I'm not comfortable presenting pictures. Indeed, my body feels different (but it doesn't look different). Maybe that will change by the next milestone of 50% of my goal weight loss. In the meanwhile, even without a different looking body, I'm pleased with greater strength and flexibility. I also recorded my second lowest resting heartrate (81bpm) in the 13 months I've worn my fitbit (my lowest was 79 or 80 - I figure I'm going to beat that goal slowly too!).

Onward.

EDIT I'm down 32 pounds from highest to lowest points. I regularly use fitbit and trendweight to monitor my weighted moving averages. Using that over the past 60 days, I've lost 25 pounds given my trends.
