No longer "morbidly" obese...Just obese!!!

Heya! I still have some weight to lose (I want to be a size 12 or 145, whichever comes first), and I thought I'd share a 50-pound drop. I began on January 1. On my first day at the YMCA, I actually fell off the stationary bike (there's a mental image you can do without) and the first day I got in the pool, I fell back in trying to get out! But now, no more falling down and I do recumbant bike (my lady bits hurt on the cycling). I still feel like I could kill for food and the desire to eat hasn't left, but most of the time, I fight the urge and win.
