My main comment is congratulations. All I read there is that you have lost 8 pounds.
The rest of my post is just some guys opinion, who is not a doctor, not a dietitian and is not thin
Weight loss, like stock growth has to be measured over time, fluctuations on a graph are just noise, it is the trend that matters. IMO the biggest mistake anyone can make is trying to get weight off too quickly and not consuming enough good calories. It is all about metabolism and how the heck we can burn more calories. By not ingesting enough calories the body will learn to live on less.
Take pride in the 8 pounds, then set some goals like:
- I will weigh less than 200 pounds this time next year
- my blood pressure will be xxx/xx
- I will consume a healthy diet (not discussing what that is)
- I will get stronger and more fit. I will have more muscle to burn calories
