I'm so excited. Today, I stepped on the scale and FINALLY saw the number I had been waiting to see for the past year. 199.8 today. I haven't been in the 100s for over 14 years. My weight in July of last year was 294 pounds, which means I've lost about 95 pounds so far. I've had some major life changes lately, and for about the past three months, I've been yo-yoing up and down in the same five pounds. But I didn't give up, and that's what's important. Now that my life is calming down a bit, I'm moving in a downward trend again. I've got a ways to go, but this is a huge milestone for me. For years I've been saying, I'll never lose the weight. Well, I've proven myself wrong. And I know this is cliche, but believe me. If I can do it, ANYONE can. Good luck to all. Keep moving forward no matter what life throws at you.
