Onederwoman in the house!

I did it. I got on the scale last night and it said 199.0 (i took a picture of the scale) and when I got up and jumped on again this morning, it said 197.8! Holy cow! I know tomorrow is our official weigh-in day, but I wanted my very own post, because this is really exciting news for me. For those of you who don't know, I have never, ever seen a 1XX on the scale in my life. I was always a pretty confident child and never thought to get on a scale until I was 14, at which time I weighed 249 lbs. The lowest I've been since then was 218, so that was my first goal, and then my second goal was 199, which I will hopefully never see again either! My next goal is 178, when I get to join the century club. This is so fantastic. Thank you all for sharing this journey w/ me, and for all the support on my "expanders" post. I'm getting used to them, sorta, but I've had to slow down when talking or I just sound ridiculous all over again. I still can't say my name real well, so I've decided to change it to something like "Godiva", or "Ohio", or another word with no S and no CH sounds. I'm taking suggestions. Talk to you all tomorrow on the weigh in. Can't wait to see how everyone is doing. shana
