Onward and Downward!

Thank you! I'm not sure I'll be looking great by Christmas (everything is relative), but I will for sure be feeling and looking better!

Woohoo!!! HaPpY dAnCiNg for you.

Thanks Sheila!

Congratulations! I think it's every bit as awesome as "onederland" - all of these milestones are very encouraging. I remember being so thrilled to get, and STAY, out of the threes.

Enjoy - it just keeps getting better. =)

Thanks so much, Amy!

Congrats! That is wonderful news!

Thank you! I appreciate your kind support!

Congratulations! Huge milestone. That was a big one for me. It's when I started to realize this might actually be possible.

And it is every bit as awesome as getting below 200!

Keep it up!

Thanks. I will definitely keep it up!

Great accomplishment and congratulations. I agree with Skinny Scientist. If you set smaller goals along the way, you'll feel that sense of accomplishment and not get so overwhelmed. When I started out i worked on wl goals of 25 lbs. at a time, and then when the number to go got smaller, I dropped that to 10 lb goals. For exercise, when I started I could barely do 5 minutes on the treadmill at 2 mph. I gradually increased that as well.
