    I started out at 263 pounds, I am now 173! All done with CICO, though I did add in a gym membership 3 months ago. Thanks for all the support these last few years. I still have 40 pounds to go, but I'll take it slow and steady...eventually I'll get there

      I am so excited for you!

      I hope to be done with obese by the time I have my doctor's visit on the 26th. However, at this point it only looks likely if I can also grow an inch, as I haven't lost anythiy in the last week.

      I started at about 260. My goal is 170. I am so glad to know for sure it can be done! Congratulations on your success!

      That is awesome, “you go girl!” I am happy for you. Reading your post title made me have instant recollection of how it felt when I broke out of the obese level of body fat. It is nice to hear and see your successes! Slow & steady is always a great path to chose!
      Best wishes,
      Dennis

      I don’t think any of us can appreciate how difficult it’s been to be where you were, being on a walker, and how far you’ve come. I bet you feel like a new person! Keep on killing it!

      That's so motivating! Thanks for sharing this. My goal is to get under "obese" and it's really helpful to hear your story.

      That is wonderful. You look great. I went from morbidly obese to overweight also, it is a great feeling.

      Very cool! I cannot wait till I can say the same. Started out 272.6 and I am not 201.8. So that translates BMI wise from 42.7 to 31.6 now. 190 will be out of obese territory. Great job, hope to join you very soon!

      I can't wait until my scale says the same! I am probably at the lower end of obese but it hurts to see it:/
