Height: 6'

Smile Oh hey, I'm NORMAL.

I hit my last mini-goal today. I weighed in at 183.6, and just scraped into the "normal" BMI range at 24.9. I really don't know what else to say, at the moment, because I knew this day was coming, and I've thought it to death, and I'm still not quite done, yet, but oh my gosh, I am a NORMAL weight for my height.

It can be done, people. It took me 632 days to lose 192 pounds, and achieve a normal weight, but I did it. You can do it. It can be done, it really, really can.

I just, wow, don't know what else to say right now, except, onward to goal, I guess.

What a huge accomplishment!!

Sometimes I get so down about losing another 60 lbs, but stories and testimonies from other people that lose that and more really inspire and keep me going.

Thank you for sharing with us!!

That's a huge achievement especially coming from where you started. You've lost a whole person and I guess you never want to find her again.

Bend your head down a little, so I can hang over your head a tricolor satin ribbon with a gold medal hanging from it.

You did it.

And I hope you take the time to savor this moment properly, and let it sink in, before looking beyond it at any other numbers you hope to achieve. Don't hurry past the scenery. It's a nice place to be in.

You have my heartfelt congratulations.
