A measure of success

Today was my first Sunday weigh-in and I'm very pleased with my progress for the week.

Start weight: 178.8 kg (394.2 lbs)
Last week's weight: 178.8 kg (394.2 lbs)
Current weight: 175.2 kg (386.2 lbs)
Loss this week: 3.6 kg (8 lbs)
Overall loss: 3.6 kg (8 lbs)

Start BMI: 56.4
Last week's BMI: 56.4
Current BMI: 55.3

It's been a really encouraging week. I've stuck to my eating plan and while on occasion I have felt hungry, it's never to the point that I've felt woozy or dizzy. In fact, the hunger appears roughly the time mealtimes are approaching, so I think that's a pretty good indicator that I'm on the right track. I think it would be foolish to expect this pace of loss to keep up on diet alone, and I've promised myself that I will start an exercise regimen once my rate of loss drops below 1.5 kg per week. But for now I am pleased with the path I'm on.
