blogs/blog-0716639001350322543.jpgI made it somewhere I thought I would never be again, and saw a number I thought I'd never see at the beginning of my weight.

ONE!!! I made it to ONEderland this morning, and even though I expected it to be there since I was 201 yesterday it still shocked me...I carefully stepped off the scale, grabbed my phone, stepped back on and snapped a picture.

I am so proud of this picture, it's like a badge of honor.

I did it, and I am so thankful!

You are very very lucky! Be proud. I wish I could see that number. Since I had a fill 3 weeks ago I have been stuck at the same number but clothes fit better. I don't get it.

Job well done, congratulations

I've got fifty more pounds to go before i see the 200 marker on the scale.

I've heard that once you reach that 200lb mark the idea of "onderland" dances before you and can be elusive for some but we will all eventually get there.

How are you doing besides the weight? are you nearing the end of the plus size department and venturing into the regular sized store? Can you see more of your bone structure and muscle? How loose are your clothes getting?

again good work

Omg!!! Congratulations how exiting!!!!! I still have a long way to go and hopefully I live to see that day were the scales marks less that 200lbs. I'm aware that I don't know you but I am really proud of you =) I'm doing a happy head dance for you =)

As far as I know sometimes we lose inches instead of weight and as weird as it sounds thats actually normal, kind of frustrating in a weird kind of way because if our clothes fit better well then whats the problem right? but I guess or at least for me I want to see the numbers. What i'm about to do is buy myself a tape measure and see how many inches I lose that way I know if I'm making any kind of progress when that happens =)

icestorm- I am between a 16 and 14 in the Plus sizes, I carry my weight around my mid section, if it wasn't for that I would be a 14.

My clothes are getting very loose, and I've done a lot of purging of Fall and Winter clothes I had from last year, when I got them out I knew they would not fit and it was fun trying them on and seeing how big they were on me now!

You'll get there too!

I agree, we all lose differently. I seem to lose weight quicker than inches...I don't exercise enough, and I know it.
