      I am thrilled that I have reached the mark of losing 120 lbs. But what I truley can't believe is that I am below 200lbs. 199.4 to be exact. Throughout my weight loss journey I have been able to say. "Wow, I havnt wieght this much since... ect. But I thought about it and I dont remember the last time I saw a weight under 200. My life has changed so much. I have gone from a 319 lb man who could barely sleep because my sleep apnea was so bad to a man who doesnt really even snore. I went from a guy who got tired climbing the stairs at work to a guy who is looking forward to his triathlon at the end of the month. I am definately a happy boy today and I am so thankful to the MFP community for being so supportive. I'm not at my goal yet but I am started to get close.:drinker:

      I :heart: the black team!!!


      WAY TO GO! I am smaller than I can ever remember being. I feel great, too! Last night I went out with family and wore a ring I haven't been able to get on since I was 16 (I'm 48). Needed something on that wedding ring finger because the wedding ring falls off!!!!! Hubby and I are planning new bands when I reach my goal. Keep up the good work. I'm really glad I found this site. I was on my own the first 5 months and doing fine but reading others' successes (and occasional stumbles) is a great reminder that there are others out there fighting the same fight! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!:flowerforyou:

      That is so Great! Congratulations! It is a major accomplishment. You prove that it can be done. 120Lbs lost is my first goal and I am almost half way there, and it is nice to see someone making the changes and accompishing that milestone. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :drinker: :drinker:

      That is way cool. You have lost your 'Clyde' status officially! I am looking forward to when I see a weight less than 200 pounds, which hasn't happened for me since at least 1989, maybe earlier than that.

      It is a long journey, but it is worth it. It is just like re-inventing yourself.

      That handnt occured to me either. lol that's cool stuff.
