Onderland - NOT!

I'm not going to eat, drink, or even look at food until I break 200 pounds.  It's been a long time coming (a couple of months or years and years, depending on how you look at it).  I was at 200.2 this morning and sometime today I'll be at 199.8 (my scale only has .2 pound increments). 

Send powerful fat-burning thoughts my way!

Hey Dick,
Your almost there!  Just hang in there.
Dont starve yourself because once you eat it may creep up again.
Jus****ch your caloric intake for the next couple of days.
Your there...and we wanna see pics....

Hi Mary,

No starving planned.  I usually drop about half a pound between my regular morning weigh-in and 10:30-11:00 if I don't eat before that.  Doesn't happen during the week when I go to work, but on weekends I frequently don't eat until late morning anyway.

Just took a long hot shower.  That's usually good for a couple of tenths.  Got me down to 200 even, and the scale was bouncing betweeen that and 199.8 before it decided.  Normally I don't post that I'm at a weight unless I'm lower than the weight plus five tenths, but this one is different.  I've been wanting to be under 200 for a long time and at 199.8 I'll be calling it good. 

Another hour or so, or a short walk, and I should be there.

Pics to follow.  I took some three month ones the other day but they weren't very good.  When my wife gets back on Wednesday night, I'll have her take some new ones.

I was stuck at around 205 for almost a month.  I think it's twice as frustrating to stall when you are so close to a big milestone like that. 

Good luck with those three pounds.  You've proven you can get the weight off, so it's just a matter of time (not much, I hope).

Yes..it is frustrating when you're this close to a big milestone..

And i have my 18 mth appt in october..my surgeons office scale is about 4 lbs different than mine..so I really want to be at 195 at least by October..so i'm under 200 on their scales.

I'll get there..and beyond..
