This is my first post here, I wanted to brag somewhere about what I managed to do today!

I started out weight 290 lbs and my goal is to loose at least 100 lbs overall, but I made small mini goals for myself, to weight the same as my husband, to be under 250 lbs, to get under 220 lbs (which is what my progress bar notes) and then to finally loose 100 lbs.

Today I weighed in at 252.2 lbs, which is less than my husband and close to my second mini goal! I have lost 29 lbs all together!!!

I am very proud of myself and wanted to brag! I never knew I had it in me to do this!

    He is! He has been exercising with me on weekends, I think he's jealous.. it's so nice to finally be able to wear a pair of my blue jeans that are 2 sizes smaller than what I had! Now just 1 more size so I can wear my black jeans before October 31 and I will be so happy!

    That's fantastic! You are rockin'. This shows all the effort is worth it. I know it's hard sometimes, but you have stayed the course and your body is rewarding you for it. Keep going!:smile:

    It took me 10 days between goals of 253 lbs (my husband's weight) and to be under 250 lbs which was my second mini goal, but today I had success when I weighed in at 249.6 lbs!

    Yay!
