Well I was on the radio 2 weeks ago, promoting weight loss to truck drivers, and MFP. You would have thought I was a salesperson for MFP!! I have made 1 new friend from that 10 minute radio spot. I admitted my high weight and current weight, to everyone that was listening, and how long I had been here. Last night, I sent the radio host a email, updating my new weight because I had to share it. He then read the email, in full, over the radio. Have I lost my mind or what? LOL! Anyhow, I can't wait to tell you all here, even though weigh in isn't until Saturday. This morning, I weighed in at 199.6! Did you see that? 111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111!! It's been over 28 years since my first number, was the first number! 111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111!! I am almost caught up with my license now. It states I weigh 190lbs, and has for years, even when I weighed 255lbs. Thank you everyone here for all the great support you have given me. I couldn't do it without you!

    Well done :)

    Don't you find it weird that they put your weight on your driving licence? That's too personal. I'm from England and they don't do that here. Infact I don't think the government could get away with that!! I would find it humiliating, because I have to show my Licence as ID when at the supermarket sometimes.

    thats awesome keep it up, im about one pound away from my license weight of 230. Its been on there since i was 16 (im 30). My ultimate goal is 210 or under. I believe i will get there thanks to myfitnesspal and p90x.
