Default Under 170!! - edit: now under 160!!

I almost didn't post this, but I am so happy that I decided to. When I started this thing at the end of January, I thought it would be ages until I saw my weight in the 160's again! Before I gained this extra weight, I was at 163-165 for 5 years, so being in the 160's feels a lot more like "me" again. I just have to be sure not to get too comfortable here.

(...it's funny; I'm still convinced that I've just lost "water weight" and that any day now, I'm going back up to my starting weight. 16.5 lbs of water weight? I think it's finally starting to sink in a bit.)

Hey! Awesome!!!

It feels so nice to enter a new ten number.

And I definitly think you've lost 16.5 pounds of more than just water. Probably mostly fat.

Congrats

I am sure that if you had been carrying around that much water you would have floated away. That being the case I will say great job on your weight loss.

Thanks for everyone's support. I just hit my next mini-goal...I'm in the 150's! O_O It doesn't seem all that long ago that I was nearing 190...time flies.
