No longer over 200 pounds

Options
i stepped on my scale this morning and the number was pleasing. One, it didn't begin with a 2!
I'm so excited and just wanted to share this with anyone who needs a little nudge. I credit this entirely to the site (oh and to me), but mostly here because everyone was so motivating and I truly kicked my butt everyday. Also sort of to remind people, I wasn't eating enough and my body was holding out. Lastnight I had a half a piece of cheesecake and a glass of milk. To many that's nothing but to me it's SUGAR and the evil. But somehow eating more pushed me to lose more. So you don't have to starve to lose weight effectively.
Keep going MFP'ers!

    I gotta tell you that its true I mean I've lost the few lbs i've gained but, sometimes more body gets used to eating less that your weightloss is slowed but, here i come with a piece a cake or something and my scales drops a lbs or two. lol. I can't wait to be under 200 I was under I think 4 months ago to 198 but i started eatin horribly but, i'm bk on the diet regimen and hoping to get it donw atleast if I make it to 180 by may i'll be happy.

    I know the feeling well! I started at 209 on January 13th 2010 and when I got below 2 (first time in years) it was a great feeling..now on an even better note I need 3 lbs to get below 180. THATS INSANE! I havent been in the 170's since like 10 years ago. Its amazing what hard work and focusing can do! Keep up the good work because there isnt a better feeling in the world!
