milestone!!
MILESTONES is what this entire journey is all about. Keep setting them and when you hit it, move onto a new one.
For me when I was 435 pounds, just getting into the 300's was the first. Then 350; then just under 300 or fitting into jeans the the 40 waist range; then 250 and jeans in size 38. Now my new one is 233 - because for me that's when I officially move from OBESE to OVER WEIGHT :D !!
Keep sharing those MILESTONE with us. No matter what it is. Soon you'll realize which each MILESTONE you pass, you're that much closer to where you need to be.
CONGRATS !!

Shannon,
That's awesome!
I was at 326 starting out and whew ...I kept telling myself... How the heck did I get into the 300's? But when I hit that 299 mark I thought and said out loud while still on the scale I will never see you again 300. I have a long way to go too but you have the right attitude and I think celebrating these milestones will help all of us stay focused on what we need to do. Remember slow and steady is the way to go. That's what I what tell myself on my weekly weigh in.
Take care,
Melissa
