Stats: Then and now

I went back and looked at my stats from January 2, 2008, when I started this blog>

This is then stats:

Gender: Female
Age: 44
Height: 5' 7.5"
Weight: 289 pounds. Yes, I'm THAT FAT!!
BMI (Body Mass Index): 44.6 (30.0 is obese, so I'm 50% more obese than obese!)


neck: 15.75
upper arm: 15
bust: 53
upper waist: 42
navel: 56.5
hips: 54
upper thigh: 29
above knee: 20
calf: 18.5


Here are the now stats. I need to correct my BMI, because I've been using 5'8" as my starting point, forgetting that I measured back in 2008 and was only 5'7.5"

Height: 5' 7.5"
Weight: 210
BMI: 32.4


neck: 15
upper arm: 14.25
bust: 43
upper waist: 36
navel: 47
hips: 46
upper thigh: 26.5
above knee: 17.5
calf: 16


Wow. Pretty impressive. 41.5 inches gone with those measurements.

Oddly, I would have hoped the severe apnea would be better managed/resolved at this point, but it's not. I'm still battling it every night and day and it doesn't appear to have improved in the least bit. Lately, it feels like it's worse, or perhaps that's just the effects worsening and the apnea has stayed the same. In addition, I have some narcolepsy, that's really been rearing up the last couple of months. Last week I had 3 narcolepsy episodes in one day, usually I have 3 in one month. Don't know what's going on with that. Kinda scared to go looking for reasons.
