first goal met
My chrio says I have a really large skeleton for my height and that the mid 120's will be ideal for me. So we'll see. I would be happy there but I'd love to have a golden apple.

Congratulations, Price!!!! I have been watching your journey, since we have similar stats and started at the same same. Your tenacity has been inspiring and helped to keep me going at times. Savor your victory!!! It is a wonderful and surreal feeling.
My goal was always 120, although, my surgeon's goal was 130 (after I said 140 was too high for me). When I reached 120, I thought, "Why not 110?" So, that is what I'm working towards, but the weight loss has definitely slowed and if I don't lose another ounce, it would be okay. I'm at 115.5 today, so it can be done.

I started at about the same weight as you, too. I also hit 140 around 6 1/2 months so we are on the same track. I just hit 135 lbs today and that makes me happy because I remember in 1997 I went to Jenny Craig's. I was only about 155 at that time and I wanted to get to 135. I got to 139 and they told me I could start maintenance. Well, you know how that goes.
Anyway, it feels good to be in a normal BMI and in a single digit size so I can't complain although like you I am going to ride this train and see where it takes me.
Congratulations to you.
