Started MFP the day after the Super Bowl (Feb. 4th) at 229 lbs. with the initial goal to lose 25 lbs. This would get me to where I weighed when I was in college. I kept looking at the weight prediction time frame after completing a day's entry and found that it was uncannily accurate. You know the message, "If every day were like today you would weigh 205 lbs. on June 14th" I worked the program, checking in every day and (mostly) staying under my calorie goal. I hit 205 lbs. a couple of days earlier than June 14th. I stayed under 205 lbs. for good the first week of July.

So now I'm thinking--Why not go for Onederland? Just get under 200 lbs. to say you did it. Take a picture of the scale and then simply maintain your weight. On August 23rd I weighed in at 199.6. I was elated! I grabbed my phone to take a picture and got a blurry shot of 199.8 lbs. I tried again and I kept getting 200.0 lbs. I had made it, but couldn't prove it. I decided to take a picture, a head shot, to commemorate the day. After I took it I went back through my phone's photos and found one from December 2012 to use as my "before shot" . Here's the comparison shot:

I weighed myself today and I was at 199.6. I took a photo and got a good picture of me residing in Onederland. Thanks go out to tphil58 for his support.
