I started with 227 pounds to lose. I thought it was a totally insurmountable amount of weight to even ATTEMPT losing. I made a realistic goal of losing 50 lbs per year and taking 4-5 years to take it off. I figured on 1 pound per week... lol.

Now after 9 months plus 3 days I've lost 128 lbs. I have ONLY 99 POUNDS LEFT TO LOSE!!!!!

And I know to most 99 pounds seems like a lot but

A) it's double instead of triple digits
B) 249 is closer to 200 than 300
C) 249 is my weight when I was 20 and on my last big diet

This is HUGE for me. Just huge.

I'm on track to lose at least another 30 lbs by my one year anniversary date... that's almost 160 lbs in a year. Holy crap.

wow.

wow.

wow.

Thank you ladies. For letting me share. For loving me back

WOWZA!!! So Awesome!

That is fantastic!!! Keep up the amazing work! You are rocking the weight loss journey!

I was going to use the word amazing to describe your weight loss but it has already been used. So instead, I am going to say your weight loss has been awesome, incredible, marvelous, prodigious, shocking, stunning, unbelievable, and wonderful!

Way to go! But more importantly, I am going to say that it is well-deserved. You have worked hard for this.

and congratulations CF!

You got your .2 and then some! Congratulations!
