    That's amazing progress in such a short amount of time! Way to go!

    Out of curiosity, when do you break your Thursday fast?

    On Friday, usually around 1-2:00. I eat lunch with my co-workers. So its a 36ish to 40ish hour fast.

    Woot! So, when's the party? LOL!

    Well, the China thing will be getting in the way. So I will start the actual planning after I get back. I should get back late August. Probably have in September.

    I am going to invite all the people in my life that I had intimate discussion with over being morbidly obese. Mostly people in my church. People that I have told that I was so damn hungry all the time and there was something drastically wrong with me. People that, although they wished well for me, never had a workable solution for me. I say "workable" because all of them gave me advice, but it always involved low fat diet and exercise. Never missing breakfast (you know- the MOST important meal of the day---NOT!) And trim fat off your steak. Hey! Don't salt your food so heavily! <---- that's the advice they gave me. But to their credit, they did pray to God on my behalf to help me, that worked! God led me to find this way of eating and the rest is HIStory.

    Sorry, I get distracted easily.

    I will invite everyone on this list, because you are part of the answer to my prayers. I realize probably no one will come, but it would be cool if one person came. There are a few local people on this discussion group.

    I've been off mfp this week while on vacation, and am thrilled to read your goal reaching post. Outstanding news. I have been away from the scale all week, so regardless of what I weigh in the morning, I know that I will get back on track by rereading Dan's terrific posts - great for increasing my knowledge and for motivation. Way to go, Dan.

    I am so happy for you Dan. You must have stepped on and off the scale at least 4 times! I'm glad you took pictures of the numbers. I'm going to do that when I reach my goal. Your chart is impressive. minor blips but all downhill for a year. Congratulations on the new YOU!
