BIG OLE FART (for me at least)

Well, I jumped on the scales and... low and behold, I was down to 295

Considering I can't remember the last time I was below 300 (without being sick), I'm beside myself! It's hard to imagine that I'm walking around with 90 less pounds. I still look in the mirror and don't see that much change, but when I put on my clothes, I can tell. I just bought a new belt in June, and I've only got 2 holes left before I either have to buy another belt, or start punching holes in it! It's great being on the loosing side! Although I don't post much, I definately read the posts every day. I want to thank you guys for the tremendous support! You guys have made this journey much more enjoyable.

Congrats on getting below the 300 mark! I feel the same way about not seeing the difference in the mirror. Everyone I know tells me I look so different, but I guess when you see yourself in the mirror everyday, it isn't has striking as seeing someone after a year or so.

Man, great!
I hear you about not noticing the changes right away.
What did it for me was putting a photo of face six months ago next to one now, and I came near to having to change my shorts.

Tremendous milestone. Congratulations and wash your ass.

I've kept an 1/8 inch bit in my drill for the last 6 months so I could put new holes in my belt. I've got the original 5 holes plus 11 new ones in it so far. It's kind of a totem pole of my journey now.
