+18.2 (∆ -0.8)

Since I'm almost halfway through my weight loss, I felt it was time to talk a little more about my milestones from the past.

About a week ago, I had the opportunity to go back and get my exact weight measurements from the last four years. It was rather enlightening because it showed me I had had a skewed impression of how much weight I had gained, and when. I was shocked to find, for instance, that I was at only +8 four years ago, although I had been convinced my weight hadn't dipped below +16/+17 since the turn of the millenium.

Here are the numbers:

1-Jun-2005
+15
1-Nov-2005
+8
1-Jul-2006
+16
1-Mar-2007
+25
1-Nov-2008
+25
19-Jan-2009
+33
2-Mar-2009
+18.2


So my major next mileposts to cross are +16, +15, and +8. I'm pretty sure I'm only a couple of weeks away from +16, but when I get below +8, I'll feel an enormous sense of accomplishment since I got to +8 from +16 by using a specific diet program.
