For the first time in 3+ years, I'm under 200

Options
I've been working my *kitten* off (not literally, thank God. i love my booty) up until when school started. I wasn't able to work out as much, but still ate pretty well. I've been yo-yoing between 207 and 204. I don't like to weigh myself. I really don't. I get obsessive over it. But I told myself that I would get on the scale today. I step on it, expecting the worse. I look down and see it is at 199. I literally broke down and cried. I've not been under 200 in over 3 years so this is utterly amazing. My hard work is paying off and I couldn't be happier.

    This is really awesome! So happy for your...i will probably break down and cry when I finally get under 200 as well. I understand--even the obsessive scale behavior. :)

    Keep it up and add me if you would like!

    Oh that is brilliant, well done! The scales are are only a number, we all know that, but how good does it feel to be in ONEderland - that in itself will motivate you to continue your great dedication and exercise. Sometimes we don't feel like we are getting anywhere, even though we feel better, have more energy, etc but the scales and photographs are a great way of reminding ourselves how far we have come. Congratulations!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
