:smile: :smile: WOO HOO! January 1st I set a goal for myself to get to 200 lbs (from 218.5) by the beginning of May, I did it!!! :happy: :happy: Even better I set body fat goals, Started out at 36.5% body fat (obese) with a goal to get under 30% body fat, and drum roll, I am at 29.4% :noway: :noway: as of this morning per my trainer!!! I am out of obese, into overweight!!! Now the next goal is to get under 26% in 3 months!! :wink:
I have been so discouraged this month since I only lost 3lbs :sad: and have been working really hard, but when I figured out the fat loss it was closer to 8lbs!!!:happy:
I am doing the happy dance today!!! :laugh: Thank you to all my buddies on MFP who offer encouragement, support, advice and a kick in the pants when I need it! And if you need a kick in the pants let me know I'll be happy to oblige!!! :flowerforyou:

    Congrats! Never thought you'd be happy to be labeled "overweight" would you? LOL

    Can't wait til I'm just "overweight" and not obese!

    Keep up the good work!

    That's great!!!! Seeing that smaller number in body fat % makes me so happy, and even more excited than seeing the loss on the scale 'cause I just don't want to be FAT. I want to be muscle, water, TONED. Great job on the lower numbers, girly!!
