The "Half Yourself" Club

Ok, what I really don't want to go do is clean the bathroom and do laundry like I should be doing this saturday morning. So instead I will start a new topic. How many of you out there have "halved" yourselves by loosing half or more of your peak weight. I know Jimbo is one of the above and I have also done this by going from 247 to 122. I bet there are quite a few of us out there actually.

So I hereby  create the official  "HALF YOURSELF" club. Membership has no cards, certificates, dues or other benefits although I think I will work on coming up with a secret handshake to be revealed only in a secret ceremony involving the drinking of a protein drink out of a skull. Maybe we could get special Tshirts which would actually be our old T shirts but with half the material cut out of the middle and then restitched together. Might make for an interesting fashion statement and no worse than all the young people's jeans with their butt cracks hanging out.

So all you halvsies out there (not a legal scrabble word) show your half selves. Check in and brag about your achievement!

Diane

My highest recorded weight was 380 but I was heavier than that just didn't want to record the number. I estimated that I was 400+ well today I'm 200. So therefore I would be eligible for the Half yourself club.

Goal Weight: 220 (9/29/10)      Revised Goal Range 215-220         Current Weight: 224

Your totally in! I know the high number I use as a documented weight is lower than my all time high. Didn't want to know that number!!!! I'm  sure it was 360 or 370. I think even Jimbo doesn't know is real all time high!

Congrats on 200...... I knew when you reached goal.... that wasn't gonna be the number....!!!! It takes a while to really settle in for a soft landing !!!!
