Thanks everyone! I really feel like I'm doing this...I'm not so worried that this is just a fluke and I'll wake up tomorrow and weigh over 300 lbs again. I hope I don't...I already got rid of most my "fat" clothes.
I know I have a long road ahead of me...especially since I know realistically I'm not going to continue to lose 17 lbs a month, but that's OK...it's all about baby steps. I have 4 weeks to lose 9 lbs so I'm at 250 for my birthday. That's the next step.
bethFromDayton - I took your suggested and loaded up about 50 lbs of books into a cloth bag and tried to carry it up and down the stairs 10 times, the 5th trip up the handle ripped on one of the bags and books went tumbling down the stairs...I wonder if that's telling at all.
Thank you so much everyone for the kind words and support...it's helped me more than you'll ever know.
