Watching the scale

I reached my target weight a bit ago, and yesterday I made it to target-minus-5 (with over 25 pounds lost). Consequently, I’m setting a new target, which makes me — by the new measure — at target-plus-25. I’ve bought new (slimmer) blue jeans twice since I started, now showing 4 inches less around my waist; the new setpoint is to get me back to the weight I had to maintain while in the Army. Even that would be 20 pounds over my ‘lean’ adult weight, but I was at least able to remain fit in the Army, so that’s worth aiming for. And, of course, the lighter I get, the easier it will be for me to stay active and in shape.

Just one of several things going on for me right now. Encouraging all the same.
