I realized the other day that I'm finally back under 200 pounds for the first time in a very long while. That was my second mini-goal. Now I'm aiming for 174 which will put me at the top end of the healthy weight charts. Then I can decide how low I really need to go.

    Congratulations....I am trying to reach that point as well, it seems like such a struggle; I am only 6 lbs away from it and I too want to get out of the "overweight" column of the BMI scale.

    Way to go! I'm two pounds away from that goal, and I'm looking forward to weighing less than 200 lbs....something I haven't done in 20 years.
