    Congratulations! Every middle milestone is worthy of celebration, and good choice on having achievable goals.

    I'm aiming for merely "overweight" too. Once I get there I'll take a look around and see what/whether I want to lose more. I'll set my final target based on fat %; I have very thick bones for a woman (8 inch wrist circumference, average for women is 7 inches) so most of the weight-based tables don't really apply in my case. At 6'6" I imagine you have similar issues with the available 'weight targets' for men.

    I was over 300 for about three years. As of yesterday I'm down 35 and can already feel it. I'm on a 120lb journey myself and refuse to give up.

    Keep going man, you can do it. And remember: If you quit now, you'll go back to where you started. When you started, you desperately wanted to be where you are now...
