Default Oh I am SO excited!! I lost 100 pounds!

I am doing an absolute dance of joy over here this morning! Today the scale says 178! I started this journey at 278 pounds. I am SO happy and excited I can hardly stand it! I never really believed this was possible, but it is! OMG!! I took measurements today too and am just stunned... 10 inches off my waist, 10.5 inches off my bust, 14.75 inches off my hips! I will be posting pictures on my blog and will share those here when I do!

Thank you guys so much for the support through all this. And please for those struggling just don't give up... it might take awhile but it is SO worth it!!

Marci, I started in August, 2007... so over 3 years!

I actually dropped 64 pounds in under a year (2007-8) but then stalled out, struggled, plateaued, and fought the same 15-20 pounds over and over for 20 whole months. I then got it back together and since March 1 I have lost 56 pounds
