I'm no longer "Fat"

I've reached a major milestone today, and wanted to share....
I got on the scale today, and my body fat measurement read 19.8%.... the blinky light on the scale that usually hovered on the overweight (and 3-4 months ago on Obese), now showed that I am within a normal range! I know that these scales aren't the most accurate, but I'm still calling it a victory none-the-less, especially since when I started back in september, I think my fat %age was more like 28-29%.
I still want to lose another 10 lbs, which would put my BMI into the healthy range, but I'm taking it slow now, and will slowly transition from "weight loss" mode, to "everyday life mode".
