in january I began at 220 pounds. the first goal I had was to get out of 200 which I made it in April. my next goal was to get out of the 190's and enter the 180's. well today my jeans were a bit loose so I thought okay I am going to weigh to see where I am. I weighed in at 189 pounds. my last weigh in was 191 pounds.

    That was my first goal too, to wave goodby to the 190's.

    Congratulations! I have just experienced these thresholds myself these past couple months. Each decade down there is more strength and encouragement. Looking forward to hearing of your continued progress! Keep up the great work!

    Fantastic job, I to have just slipped out of the 190's I started at 221. These milestones are brilliant and I personally never would have made it this far without MFP.

    Can't wait now to be in the 170's

    Keep up the good work.

    Awesome job! It's a good feeling. I am about to cross into the 170's. My last weigh in was 180.4. It's such a nice thing to see it going in the right direction.

    Couldn't have done it without MFP!

    I just know you will kiss the 180's good-bye soon too.

    yes my next goal is to kiss the 180's goodbye. I am wanting to be at least 170 pounds by the end of September for my middle nephew's wedding. my oldest one got married January that is when I weighed 220 pounds. my sister and my niece/ nephews haven't seen me since then (they live in another state.)

    Congrats! I'm trying to say goodbye to the 190s, too, but it's sticking to me like toilet paper on someone's shoe.

    I felt the same way about it that you did sticking to toliet paper on shoes. when it came to even getting in the 100's. I was in the 200's for the longest time.
