Finally!!
Woo Hoo!! I'm FINALLY out of the Morbidly obese and into the "obese" range of BMI. I was in an 8 week stall and it feels so good to finally be loosing again! Just got into a size 16 pants, 12/14 or Large shirt,...life is good! I can't remember the last time I was this light... 238- now I'm anxious for the numbers to begin with a 1 instead of a 2! What a long way from 395 in June of '08!
Thanks for letting me share :-)

Thanks Susan!
For the first time in my life I don't hate my picture. lol... I absolutely love the one I have on here as my profile pic. Still irritating that the DMV won't let me get a new photo on my drivers license... they said I would have to loose another 50-100 lbs (having already lost 100 when I was in there) before it could be considered a "significant change" in order to have a new photo. I was told I still have the same facial features. And all this time I thought our legal state ID should closely resemble what we looked like! Anyone else have this trouble? I'd REALLY like to get that 400lb me picture off my license.
I get a lot of attention from the guys when I go dancing each week now as well. Thats just FUN! lol. I'm enjoying life- and doing what I want. I think I mentioned before that I took and passed the Red Cross Lifeguard course back in May- I certainly didn't think I was ready for it, but it was easy enough.
Anyhow- need to go get ready- free dance lessons tonight so off I go for more fun & exercise at the same time, can't beat that with a stick!
Next support group meeting next week? I always loose track.

SHHHHH....here's what you do. You go to a different office and tell them you lost your license. They'll have to give you a new one. $10, I think. Priceless when it comes to keeping that photo of days gone by. Won't be long now before no one will believe you were ever that heavy. You'll need proof....and bragging rights!
Yep, next week!

Before I got my new license we flew to San Diego. One of the flight attendants told me that "they" were going to start paying closer attention to things like differences in weight from the picture to the person. You might try telling them that you were told that by someone at the airport. Bet that will get you a new one.
