Moved under 200 lbs on the SCALE!!!

Postby Gwenski » January 19th, 2006, 10:31 pm

Okay this is HUGE!! I am not so HUGE anymore but this is BIG!!!

I am in the 100's ---- yee ha! 198.2 to be exact ladies and gentleman AND in a size 14 these days. I am in complete shock followed by awe.

Was looking at the scale on Sunday and wondering if it would hold and was true -- made my Mom come to see it just so I had a witness. Well, by yesterday it dropped more.

I can so see the forest for the trees and in there is the finish line. It seems like the downhill stretch but I am so NOT falling for that, I am going to make sure to be ever vigilant on this so I don't get caught up and derail myself. Hoping to get those last 48.2 lbs off by the middle of June or at least by July -- poor me, none of my spring clothes fit anymore and I will also need summer clothes --- ahh shucks!!!

Thank you all for your continued sharing and support - you are the Bestest!!!

That is so awesome !! I too, haven't been under 200 in many a year (1989 to be exact) and this is the year that I do it. This forum is such an inspiration and a place to stay motivated.

Congrats Gwenski !

Oh yay! HURRAY FOR GWENSKI!!!!

Oh, I am SO happy for you! I remember that day when it happened to me, last June: I hadn't been under 200 in nearly 30 years. Congratulations hon, you have worked hard and earned it. Your studio pictures show that you look great, and think of what you've done for your health.

Congratulations again, and have fun buying all those new clothes!

Yes, this IS fun!

Ohmygod, Gwenski, that is so freakin' awesome! Truly awe-inspiring, and absolutely my dream come true. I vividly remember weighing in at 200 pounds when I joined NutriSystem (one of endless diets) in late high school. What's interesting is that I felt fat then, but when I look back at pictures, I'd give anything to look like that now!

You are doing so wonderfully, and we are all just thrilled for your amazing success! Go buy something really fantastic and smile smile smile!
