2 Pounds Away from 100 Lost!

235.0 pounds, - 1.4 pounds today, - 98.0 pounds overall, 2.0 pounds from my next goal

I’m exactly 2 pounds away from hitting a huge milestone—100 pounds lost! I can’t even put into words how excited I am to be this close. It feels incredible to see all of the effort paying off, and it’s fun to be making steady progress.

Yesterday I stuck to my plan—intermittent fasting and a 2-mile walk—and it paid off with a 1.4-pound drop on the scale.

Now, though, I know it’s time to take the next step. I’ve started noticing a little weakness creeping in, and that’s a reminder that if you don’t do resistance training, you lose some muscle mass along with fat. Up until now, I haven’t really minded—but I feel ready and motivated to change that.

Here’s why:

• Strength training fights weakness and builds back muscle.

• Muscle burns more calories all day long, even when you’re resting.

• It will make me stronger, leaner, and help me keep the weight off.

The key is to start slow. I don’t need a 2-hour workout right away. What I need is consistency—just 1 or 2 lifts per day to begin with, and then build from there. If I try to do too much too soon, I’ll burn out. This is about baby steps… or maybe crawl, then walk, then run.

I’m ready for this next chapter: stronger, healthier, and determined to keep going. The finish line for 100 pounds is right in front of me—and I can’t wait to cross it.
