Four more pounds to go until goal!...or is there more.....

When I joined I set a goal for myself of 195 pounds. Since Sundays are our weigh in days, I was extremely happy to step on that scale and watch 199.6 pounds pop up on the screen. Now that I'm about a week and a half out from my 195, I can look in the mirror and see there's good progress that's been made, but more work that will be done.

Think when I hit the 195 goal, I'm gonna celebrate by creating a new goal of 165. Not only because that would be the 100 pounds lost since I started losing, but also because I think that would be a better weight range for me.

So far, I've gone from a size 44 waist to a 34 , and from being on 3 blood pressure medications to being on 1.5 blood pressure pills.

Here's to hoping that the journey from 195 to 165 lets me get off the other 1.5.

    Awesome job! I love that you're rewarding yourself with a new goal instead of something like... chocolate cake! Lol. You're an inspiration. Keep it up!
