We've lost over 100 pounds!

So at the end of December my mother-in-law, who started her weight loss journey last summer, got five of our family members rallied together and we joined MFP with a goal to all get healthier and lose weight. Well this morning, we passed the 100 pound loss mark between the five of us with 100.3 total pounds lost.
In addition to the pure weight numbers, there have been many NSV's along the way:
1) Our BMIs are all dropping and one of us is no longer considered obese.
2) we are all starting to shrink out of clothing
3) My blood pressure, which has been quite high for the last 3 years, is now back to normal
4) My son's football coach noted that he sees a loss in weight and his belly size.
The great part is that this is just the beginning, and we are all moving forward to the next goal.
But let me say, of we can do this...so can you.
