Weight Loss Forum / Low Carb / March 2004Mini-milestone!
I FINALLY got down below 200 today!! I've been waiting for this for months. Especially with all the water fluctuations that came with the TOM, and hovering around the same three pounds for so long, it was so great today to get on the scale and see 198.5. That's 16 pounds above my lowest adult weight, and still 44.5 pounds above goal, but it felt so good, I had to share. I've lost around 25 pounds (give or take a few; rough estimate-- I started this thing with no reliable scale) since starting this WOE on January 1 and today it really hit me how much progress I'm making, learning how to eat right and take care of myself. Good times. Piedlourde Congratulations! I have a goal to get under 200 this summer so I can take a skydiving course and first jump. Who knows if I'll want a second, but I'm definitely going to take a first. Mike Mike said: << I have a goal to get under 200 this summer so I can take a skydiving course and first jump. Who knows if I'll want a second, but I'm definitely going to take a first. I have no doubt you'll achieve your weight loss goal-- if you can do SKYDIVING I believe you can do just about anything.

I'm so glad I have this outlet, especially as an opportunity to cheer others on and be cheered on. Go us! Piedlourde Getting below 200 is not, in my book, a mini-milestone. It is a huge, major milestone! I can't wait for the day myself. Congratulations! doug > Thanks everyone!!! What a great, supportive group this is.
