Met my first goal and hopefully starting my life goal

Back in early July me and two friends decided to purchase a deal on tandem skydiving. When purchasing the deal I noticed a side not disclaimer that said if you were over 200lbs you would have to go through "special procedures". That same weekend after purchasing the deal I was shopping and saw a scale. Remembering the side note I stepped on the scale and was floored that I weighed over 200lbs. I was weighing in at 215 the largest I have ever been in my life. I decided to purchase the scale and for the first time in my life take my eating habits seriously.

Now a little over two months into my diet/life style change I reached my goal of being under 200lbs. I weighed in this morning at 188lb and this past weekend I accomplished the tandem skydiving which was a totally amazing experience. I now have decided that I haven't reached the weight I should be at. I am still labeled as obese per the BMI chart and I want to neither be obese or overweight.

Hopefully I can continue the momentum I have started and get down to a reasonable weight for my height of 150lbs. I would love to meet and get support from others in my same situation...accomplishing one goal and heading into another one.
