Best Scale Victory

Today, for the first time ever since I'm sure I lied when I got it, the weight on my drivers license is correct. This also means that, at this moment and every moment forward, I weigh the least I have ever weighed while living in the state of Maryland as an adult. (I moved here when I was 23, I'm 37 now.)

When I messaged my parents the news, I realized I had tears running down my face. This is so major.

That would be epic.  I'm sure I still have another 50+ to go for that to happen.  If not more!

I am so happy for you Gwen! That is one of my goals too, but I *really* lied so it will take me quite a while...

I wish I know how much I lied - it was a looooong time ago.  Knowing me I was probably around 280 and said I was 260.  Next license I'm going to be like "156.2" when they ask. ;)

That's AWESOME!!!! I have that as a goal also. If you lied and dizzybell really lied then I really really lied on mine ;-) Congrats on continually knocking out each of your mini goals. By the way, your post from a week ago STILL has me thinking about sushi!!!!
