I've reached the Healthy BMI

This morning I logged a rare 2.2 lb drop in weight and that put me into the Healthy BMI at 24.9.
I began MFP on January 25, 2016 at 272.4, so this morning's weight also marked a loss of 98.8 lb total so far. My target goal is to be in the middle of this range, at about 160. I got new shirts yesterday in the smallest size I want to wear, and they fit. I'm the only person in the Northern Hemishphere who doesn't have a smart phone, so I have no photographs of me standing in front of a mirror. Both my wife and my 26-year old daughter hugged me this morning. Wife complained that I was too skinny. Daughter noted that she felt bones. Yes, well, that's what it is.
I've lately become a fan of Dave Draper and battle ropes, so the journey has not ended and I see iron in my future.
