its official
I think there should be a drum roll right about now..................
Well, i'm 318.2 pounds. Pretty much where I thought I would be.
My BMI is a whopping 39. Ugh. Considering I must have weighed around 420 a year ago, I'm happy with the progress. I have to point out that I am tall, so I figure I have about 80 pounds still to lost to get down to a healthy weight.

I just want to add my congrats on the 100 pounds! You have done so great. And now the BMI is out of the morbidly obese range too! I was in the morbidly obese range myself once and now am just plain old obese!
I can't wait to no longer say the "o" word!!
good luck to you and best wishes!!

Thanks everyone.
Holly, I think you will beat me in the race! It would be very nice to be under 300 at the start of July, but I don't think that will happen. You are knocking on the door to Onederland!
Jiffy, thats a very scary thought to see me in speedos. In the bahamas I didn't even take my shirt off (i went swimming in a T-Shirt). The last thing I need is for people to see my large gut and man-boobies.
