Default 134 pounds gone and a milestone, 400 lbs!

I weighed in at 399.8 this morning and have to admit I am elated! that make a 134 pound loss since Jan 1st of this year for me, Ok this next bit is from my blog post today, I think it says it best so I will just paste it here for you guys

"Ok I will get right to it, this morning upon waking up I went to the scale directly and the first time on it whispered into my ear that I weighed 400.0 pounds! so as the grin crept across my face I stepped off for the second go at it and it said 399.8! so wify was sitting in the living room still as I was up earlier than normal today and I called her in to see and got on for my third time as I do every Friday and 400.0 again! Made it Ma! Top of the world! that is a 4 pound loss for me this week and a century mark is reached! again! this is the second century mark that I have realized since starting this weight loss adventure seven short months ago. let us just say that today is a good day for me and a new fire has been sparked underneath me to work even harder than I have been, is that even possible?! I am unsure but today I feel like I can do anything and come out on top. so yeah there ya have it, I have done it, I made it to another century mark and I don't plan on stopping any time soon. I thought that getting under 500 lbs was an amazing thing and that was 100 pounds ago! getting to 400 feels amazing, and the fact that I did it in less than seven months floors me"

Thanks for reading my ramblings

As Ever

You truly are amazing to lose in such a short space of time. Keep it up and you'll be at goal in no time.

Eesh, reading your post I went through such a range - got goosebumps, had a rush of excitement, then got a little misty eyed. That's just from reading about it! Can't even imagine how deep all those emotions must be for you. You are awesome!
