8 months out and met my doctor's target weight

I saw my doctor today for a check-up and he told me I've met his target weight loss.  (This is not to be confused with my own personal goal though).  He says I've lost two-thirds of my excess weight which puts me in a healthy range and dramatically cuts my chances of developing heart disease and diabetes in the future, so long as I stay on plan.  We did discuss my not being able to get exercise time in like we both want and I'm trying to work more of that in, but with school I'm either in class or studying so it's a challenge.  My next weight goal is to be down to 160 by my anniversary date in 4 months.  Also, my labs looked great and I'm just trying to find my last set to compare them against to make sure there hasn't been any slippage.

And the best gift of all this week?....My daughter announced her engagement to one of the sweetest men you'll ever meet. 

Congrats!  that's awesome news!

Wow, that's fabulous Jane!!! And many congrats to your daughter too :)

Congratulations!  And the news about your daughter is the best gift...my daughter is 6 and my son 3 and I am already praying that they find someone that is good to them when they grow up...
