Not all pounds are equal !!

Sometimes a half a pound is exciting, heck....sometimes a tenth of a pound is thrilling too !  But for some reason, THIS pound really excited  me this morning !!!

I AM OUT OF THE 230's !!!! 

I do not know when I last weighed under 230.  I know that after I had my daughter (18 years ago) I was 232.  -- I barfed all pregnancy, and weighed less after I had her than I did when I got pregnant !

I'M LOSING 20 YEAR OLD FAT !!!! Is that amazing or what ????!!!!

I know that feeling and losing 20 year old fat IS amazing.

Way to go!!!  Great milestone! and the 20 year old fat comment IS amazing!!!

 Seriously, I love this forum because you know how people are feeling!  I am down to 210 this morning, I cannot even STAND how thrilled I am.  I'm closer to the 100's than I have been in 12 years.  I am going to flip when I get to 199. For me, I have worked my ass off for the last 6 years TRYING to get some weight off, never did better than 220, and that was last year.  Gained it ALL back in 6 months.  20 pounds might as well have been 200 for all the heartbreak and frustration and anger and self-flagellation.  For the first time, I know it's going to happen.  I am tearing up just thinking about it.  I feel blessed every day. Even thought I am just getting started, I feel more than just pounds of weight coming off.

Congratulations

Nice!

I can't wait to have surgery (next month) and start my journey on the loser's bench.... | love hearing about all of your (OH Members) victories!!  Love the excitement and encouragement!!!!

You are absolutely right!  All pounds are not the same.  And that certian special pound changes all the time. You keep on rocking it !
