Breaking 240

I broke 240lbs today

It's mainly dehydration, I'm sure, but under the dehydration weight is 'real' weight loss, as 238 is a heck of a lot less than what I used to weigh, dehydrated or not.

Mowed the lawn for an hour, which involved plenty of sweating, then did 30 min on elliptical. 3 sprints to 160+ bpm, with a cruising speed around 155.

post workout weight was 238

Next up, breaking 230, and getting my butt into pants with a 42 inch waist.

My ultimate goal is 180 pounds and pants with a 36 in waist, but every step along the way matters to me. I'm happy with breaking 240 right now, and I fully expect it to take another two or three months to break 230. I have to remember that I don't expect to do this in a matter of months. My goal is to lose a total of 60 pounds in about a year. If it takes two years, it'll be tough to stay motivated, but it's still an acceptable result.

Crossing my fingers.
