I have an announcement to make...
I'M IN ONEDERLAND!!!!!!!
I got on the scale when I got to work and I weighed 198.5!!!!! And that was even with clothes on!!! *LOL*....No, I didn't strip down. BUT my work scale has consistently weighed heavy in comparison to my doctor's scale. SO YES!! I FINALLY MADE IT!!! I'm still in total shock!!! I haven't been under 200 in over 25 years!!
Thank you all so much for all of the support you have given me through this plateau. I honestly was getting very frustrated and a bit depressed, but everyone, I'm here to attest that as long as you follow the rules you WILL lose weight again!

You are so awesome
You getting down there girl! I am SO HAPPY for you! I know well how good that feels - hasn't been long for me as you know.
Now I'm the bouncing ball - 196, 198, 196, 198. I think the 5 and 7 have burned out on my scale, I never see those two.
And again - CONGRTULATIONS!!
