199 Are you out of your mind???!!!
I did it, I stepped on the scale today and it said 199.0!!! Wow I knew this moment would one day come, but I sure didn't expect to be gasping for air when it did.. lol
It feels great, and I am going to do what I have to do to maintain a healthy lifestyle as not to get back up to this weight.. It is scary because I know it can happen, but I think with the support of my dear friends here I will succeed and do great.. I love you guys..just had to shout it out from the rooftops I am under 200 for the first time in years!!!

Thanks Bridge
Thanks Bridge,
I know what you mean about being stuck there.. I was between 200-203 for about 3 weeks or so. But I had faith and as soon as my period was over.. BOOM!!! LOL (Sorry to be so graphic.. hehe)
Anyway it's coming girlfriend.. and thank you for being proud of me.. I'm pretty proud of myself.. 75 lbs in under 4 months.. wooo hooo!!!
Oh and 4 more pounds till I hit my DMV weight.. (My next goal!!) LOL
