As they say in soccer: Goooooal !
as of this morning i reached my goal. i weighed in at 179.6 ( totally insane number). I started at 285.5 and i aimed for 106 pounds of weight loss. I am in shock! i know the penny will drop sometime today but right now it is hard to comprehend.
i have been at 180 for weeks and have been working on maintenance, figuring some day i would drift down to 179, but i never really expected it. I know that the number was arbitrary, i just wanted a 7 in that second digit but it sure was important to see that.
Now i feel i can relax and not focus on the scale but on learning how much to eat so as not to lose any more.
thanks to all for the emotional help of this site.
