i am still a ways from wonderland but i can SEE it. I have always said my current goal is to be at a place where my weight always starts with a 1 regardless of general weight fluctuation like my cycle.

in my head though i have wanted deeply to reach the 2teens. i have always felt like if i hit the 2teens i could do it! i could get to that 1. this morning the scale said squarely 220.0. i had been stuck at 224 (granted i wasn't working on it) for over a year! 54 pounds gone! next time i step on it it will be in the 2teens. it's so big to me. so exciting!

my weight had been in the 250-274 range for almost 20 years...since i was about 15. i haven't weight this little since middle school. i am proud today!

    woow great job girl. you inspire me i am 20 years oldand have been overweight since high schoo.... i was 260 now im down to 253 my goal is 165 ish.

    when i was 13 we moved from the city to the country. from a city where i could walk/bus to things to a town with 400 people. my mom worked a job where she traveled and my dad worked 2nd shift. i was left home alone and bored. so bored. so very very bored. so i ate. and ate. and ate some more. i went from around a size 10 to peaking at a 22w or 24w while in high school. i lost about 30 pounds after high school ended and stayed squarely at a size 20 (even though i went up 24 pounds) from 18 years old until i was 33. i'm 35 now. you can do it girl! make it happen! :-)
