I've lost 75 pounds!!
 

It's official, I lost 75 pounds as of 11am Saturday, May 27th :D

It took about one year and five months, but I am in for the long haul so it's ok to spend some extra time whiddling down my thunder thighs :p

:love: I just wanted to thank everyone here :grouphug: for all of the wonderful support, advice, encouragement, success celebrations, food / exercise ideas and sassy fat-chick humor :devil:

Maybe I could have done it without you all, but it wouldn't have been anywhere near as fun :( (or as fast, or as easy, whatever :rolleyes: ). You are all :angel:

Here's to my big party when I've lost the big 1-0-0 :cheers: :dust:

I'm on :cloud9:

Congrats girl! You've done great:D. I'm chuggin' there :carrot:.

I decided to calculate my losses and see what they turned out to be.

At my starting weight of 265, I had a BMI of 44.1 :o

After losing 76 pounds, at 189 my BMI is 31.4

SO - I lost 76 pounds, dropped by BMI by 12.7 points AND lost 29% of my original body weight :carrot:

And to top it all off, I'm only 10 pounds away from an overweight BMI (179) - I'm almost not obese anymore :D

:carrot: :carrot: That is truly awesome! Congratulations!! :carrot: :carrot:

You go girl!
I bet that you are so proud of yourself! You should be!!
Congrats again.
