I am so excited! I just left the 240's and I am officially in the 230's! I know that doesn't seem like a giant success, but I started at 278, so anytime I get out of a "decade" I just get so excited that I am that much closer to "onederland". I will get there! But, today I am celebrating the distance I have come!

    Every ten pounds is a small victory for those of us that start out at a high weight.
    I know every "decade" I leave behind makes a great difference in my health and my progress,
    not to mention my motivation to keep going.

    Congratulations!

    At first I thought your Title eluded to that you WANTED it back. lol. Obviously... duh...NOT. Well done. It sounds like you are on a roll to take it off. :)

    I thought you were going to talk about a decade of your life you won't get back (from being overweight), but this is much better! :) Good for you!
    You and I had a similar starting weight (though mine was a few years ago) and are at a similar point now. When I get to the 220s, it'll be the first time in a long time and 200 just seems like a hop, skip, and a jump from there. See you there :)

    Congrats. Keep up the good work. I've got about 50lbs more to go, so every "decade" means so much. I know how you feel.
