Hello Friends!! I have some good news!! I started working out on a regular basis with a trainer in late November (I know, I know...It's about time .) I had been hovering at 200 pounds for a couple of weeks and I immediately gained 4 pounds when I started the work outs. However, I continued to lose inches. This seemed perfectly normal to me as the lean muscle mass that I began to build weighs more than the fat I was losing, so I didn't sweat it too much. Anyway....I eventually went back down to 200 pounds and was waiting for the day that my scale showed that I was no longer in the 200s. I know you ALL realize the significance of leaving a certain number behind forever (like the 400s, then the 300s...etc) ....I can't even remember the last time I weighed one-hundred-and-something. This morning I stepped on the scale and weighed 198!!!! I was jumping around dancing a jig and probably got on the scale 6 times before I eventually made my way downstairs to make coffee!! My husband had a good laugh and my cats, I'm sure, think I've gone over the deep end! I just wanted jump on the board real quick and share my happiness with you all! Have a wonderful day! I know I will!!! -Mary P

Mary: Congratulations! I know how you feel. I cried the day I broke 200--it had been a long time since I had seen 190-anything. Good news. Thanks for sharing. Pam
