I stalled over 3 weeks ago at 182, 2lbs shy of crossing that magical line between "obese" and "overweight".  Yesterday, the number on the scale moved a bit.  Today it moved again (yes, I'm a daily weigher; terrible habit!).  I'm 179.6!  I'm overweight!  I can hardly believe it.  I haven't been in the 170's in 20 years, since I was in my mid-20's.  I'm so grateful that I didn't give in to urges to "comfort eat" or satisfy cravings out of frustration with my stall.  Even though I was having some of that negative thinking (my weight loss is over, I'll always be obese, etc****pt focusing on all of the great advice and experience posted daily on this forum and it got me through.  Thanks to all of the Ontario OH folks!

Karen I am so very happy for you !!! Must make you feel like a million buck huh. What a fantastic way to start this long weekend.

 

In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.

Great Karen!  Aside from the milestone, how wonderful that you were able to keep on track during the stall.  That is really doing the work!

YAY!!  Congrats on your accomplishment.  You will have to change your avatar, you are no longer a fat cat, although you do live in the city of fat cats :)
