Losing weight quickly (Day 12)

I checked my weight this morning, and I have broken through the 160 pound barrier.   Now I am at 159.   That is the lowest since I was in my early 20s!   I do feel much lighter on my feet, and it seems there is a "spring" in my step.   I can't believe how quick it has come off.  One thing I have noticed is that I probably had more weight to lose than I thought.   I had always thought I would be "skinny" at 160.  I am not skinny, and there is still some more weight to lose.   According to my Body Mass Index (BMI),  I hit the "normal" weight range at 163.    A normal BMI is between 20 - 25.   At 163 I hit a BMI of 25 (I am 5 foot 8).    Perhaps I should be aiming for a BMI around 22.5, which would be 148.  I still have another 18 days to go, so perhaps I will get there by the end.   However, with Christmas cakes, cookies and treats all around me these days, I think it will be difficult (even with Isagenix).  Stay tuned, the Journey continues.
