Default I am in onederland today :)
I just wanted to share that I finally hit my first goal, to be less than 200 pounds

I can finally say I don't weigh 200 pounds. I hit the 199 mark two days ago but I have a rule that I have to weigh in at the new lower weight for two weigh ins before I take credit for it so I know it's a loss, not just a fluctuation. This is the second day that I weighed 199. I was 201 yesterday because I ate too much dill pickle spice on my popcorn and bloated up. Cutting salt will be the hardest thing I will have to do during my weight loss journey. I am slowly starting to make changes but I love salt and it's tough when everything good contains sodium. I don't have as much of an issue with sugar, being a tt diabetic. I am used to having minimal amounts.

Anyway, Small victory for me. If I leave the salt alone, hopefully I will see that beautiful number on the scale again tomorrow

I have also lost 9% of my body weight and I realized that I am 1/4 of the way through my weight loss journey. I am going to celebrate with a whole chocolate cheesecake...just kidding

Thanks everyone. For a couple days I was seeing 201 on the scale again but it was just bloating. I was 198.6 today It was a great feeling. I wish I could bottle that for when I am down and unmotivated.

Congratulations. By the way, I like your rule that you have to hit the mark twice before it's official. I'm so close to onederland I can almost feel it.
