I just tipped the scales at 198.4
Granted I was in my birthday suit. Granted it was when I first got out of bed and I'm always lighter then. But this is the first time I've weighed in at under 200 pounds at any time since I was 19 years old- 17 years ago.

I am now down to a 36 inch waist and I wear size large shirts. That's down from a 48 inch waist and triple extra large shirts. I am no longer considered obese- just a little overweight. I feel much better. I've lost 91 pounds.

1. Congratulations to you on your weight loss!
That's wonderful news.

Personally I'm looking forward just to getting under 300 because I haven't been there in 18 years. If I break below 200 it will be for the first time since around my 13th birthday in 1982. It almost seems surreal, but I stand an excellent chance of pulling this off with the plan I'm following.

All the best of continued success to you!

3. Fantastic!!
You're making wonderful progress. I'll bet you feel like a new person. I know I do and sometimes it gets a little confusing but I love it.
