thanks everyone, I'm really proud of my 239, teehee. I cannot wait to see 220, the last time I weighed that was 2004, I remember it distinctly. That was the yr I had my emergency hysterectomy and I entered the hospital weighing 220 and after that I packed on the lbs from hormones and menopause and of course in the latter yrs and recent yrs of divorce and separation and emotional eating, packing on the pounds of overeating and eating and eating!!! yes I've always been overweight as an adult, well, since about 25 so I'm ready to take charge and take back my life!!! woohoo

WTG girl do the happy dance u sure have erend it.....so happy for you

ok' date=' well, barely, but had to Celebrate. I weighed and I am 239, boy I haven't weighed that in many years. So excited!!![/quote']

Me too!!!! I feel your happiness doing my happy dance .... Lol congrats!!

I was about to post something like this and the first thing I see is ur post ... Lol funny

I started at 235 and hang around the 155 mark at goal. You are all doing fantastic. But...from all of your pictures, you all look wonderful and do not look as heavy as you have listed. I wish I had looked that good at 235, but I literally felt like a lump so maybe I did not see through the weight. You girls are truly an inspiration and will get to goal sooner or later. Life sure can put the pounds on depending on what we have to deal with and we will learn down the road how to handle it without eating. Congrats on your road to success.

I totally agree! All of y'all look wonderful! I am down 36 lbs and feeling pretty good. I have been struggling with seeing the number on the scale and feeling it inside. I am finding even after some loss, I still feel like the person I was when I started my journey as far as looks go. I have dropped 3 pant sizes and still just don't "feel the loss".

Your comment made me think that maybe I don't see myself as others do! Thanks for the reminder to see the number but be ok to feel the loss too!
