The last time I can remember being under 200 lbs is the summer of 2004. The reason I can remember it is because we went to the Grand Canyon and were going to take a Burro ride down into the canyon, and you had to be less than 200 lbs. I remember being afraid to step on the scale, but just barely squeeking by at around 195-198. Today I stepped on the scale at 199.1!

    Awesome!!! They made you get on the scale before getting on or did you just weigh yourself before? I have a picture in my head of a scale next to a burro before you get on. LOL! They should just take your word for it if that is the case ;)

    Thanks everyone! It is a great feeling! I keep reminding myself that this is NOT a DIET... but CHOICES. I still have another 60 - 70lbs to go, but you gotta start somewhere, right? Plus, I was targeting "onederland" for January 1... start the New Year in the 1's...

    And mom2rhylee, they actually have a scale where you register and make your reservation. And yes... they make you stand on the scale before they let you sign-up to ride. =/
