Day 3 of 100 (7.5 of 41 pounds) 18.3%
A few days ago, I tied my old record for fatness. I am a pretty short guy (5′ 7″) who should not be weighing 231 pounds. But that is where I was three days ago. So, I popped a note to Jon, my old weight loss buddy and 1955 birth year partner and fired up a new weight/calories/steps graph for us. Then I started back in on eating more healthy and walking. I looked back to the last time I weighed that much and calculated that I lost 40 pounds in 100 days. At that time it was without consistent walking. I have decided to give myself a 100 day kick start to get myself under 190 lbs. To do that, I will have to lose approximately 2.9 pounds per week for about 14.3 weeks. I like these kinds of things and plan to keep track here. I got a good jump on it the first few days, but that will slow down pretty dramatically. For the record, here are the first three days:

  • Day 1 of 100 (4.5 of 41 pounds): 10.9%
  • Day 2 of 100 (6.8 of 41 pounds): 16.6%
  • Day 3 of 100 (7.5 of 41 pounds): 18.3%
