Good doctors visit!

Last year I couldn't go to my yearly physical, so its been 2 years since I've seen my doctor. The nurse was collecting my vitals and asking questions. One of them was "have you lost or gained weight in the last year?" And I could proudly say that I've been working on losing weight. She checked my previous weight and said "yes you have!" It was so exciting to hear because I've been struggling these last few months with some small yoyo-ing.

Last may was when I started my weight loss journey and prior to that I have no clue how much I weighed. I assume more than my measured highest (222lbs). I had started exercising prior to weighing myself, but really started my diet change in May. I had lost 15lbs, but then I caught covid. I lost an additional 5lbs due to lack of taste. But as soon as I got it back, I gained 12lbs back (weighing in about 214lbs). I finally restarted a month ago and I am back down to 207. So while I am not as low as I was, I am still net down. I am so happy that the doctors office noticed my effort. It will be interesting to see my lab results once they are in. Previously my results have been on the higher side of normal, but im hoping that with my diet and exercise change I am more within tolerance.
